We don't consider it an accessory. We don't ship it inside any product
packaging, It is boxed separately and sold either separately, or with
other products on a larger order.

We are located in the US but market primarily in the US, Canada, EU,
Australia, New Zealand. We sell in other countries too, but those
listed here are the main concern.
I did lift battery covers. Most only had information about the
batteries (after removing them). One or two had what I call full
compliance labels under the battery cover. But our remote has a very
small battery cover and no place for any markings at all.

Hi Scott,
Did you try removing the battery cover, taking the batteries out, and
looking for a label under the batteries?
That would be a ‘permanent’ part of the product (the battery cover
itself would not), and as long as the remote control is shipped
without the batteries in it, then it’s ok to have the label in there.
Also, where are you? For example, if you’re in the USA, it’s
possible the manufacturer chose not to include the IC number, CE Mark,
etc.
(We’re assuming it uses RF communication, not infra-red, of course)

*Subject:* [PSES] Marking on Remote Controls
Hi All,
We have a dilemma. We are making a new high-end remote control similar
to those used with your TV or cable box or DVR, etc. I am asked what
compliance markings are required to be on the outside of the remote
control. The case is textured a bit and pad printing will be
problematic. Thinking the usual ITE kind of stuff I said the model
name, FCC and IC ID, company name, address, CE Mark, wheelie bin, and
so on.
But I just surveyed 8 or 10 remotes in our PV lab from the big names
in TV's and blue-ray players, etc. The markings ran the gamut from
nothing to company name and model number, just a wheelie bin, one had
a CE mark and wheelie bin. None had FCC orIC ID's, none had safety
agency logos, and none had sticky labels with this kind of info.
We are willing to put all of this in a manual or paper insert in
the box if necessary. But what can we legally get away without
printing on the remote?
Looking forward to the interesting replies from this august body. And
many thanks in advance for your comments.
Scott
