It is a mandatory requirement of the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) that every product implementing Bluetooth
technology has a Declaration ID. Every Bluetooth design is required to go through the qualification process, even when
referencing a Bluetooth Design that already has its own Declaration ID. The Qualification
Process requires each company to register as a member of the Bluetooth SIG – www.bluetooth.org
The following is a link to the Bluetooth Registration page: https://www.bluetooth.org/login/register/
For each Bluetooth Design it is necessary to purchase a Declaration ID. This can be done before starting the new qualification,
either through invoicing or credit card payment. The fees for the Declaration ID will depend on your membership status, please
refer to the following webpage:
https://www.bluetooth.org/en-us/test-qualification/qualification-overview/fees
For a detailed procedure of how to obtain a new Declaration ID for your design, please refer to the following SIG document,
