ABI certification

ABI certification is mandatory to integrate AVS with your products. The functional and security requirements must be met.

  • Functional requirements involve acoustics certification, music testing, functional testing, and UX testing.
  • The products to be integrated with AVS must pass this certification before they can be sold. The products to be certified must be tested by the manufacturers first. Then, submit the test reports. The manufacturers can apply for the ABI certification only after the test reports pass Amazon’s review. Tuya provides a comprehensive ABI certification solution.
