The fcc.io link from Kate provides links to what the FCC want in the wy oflabelling. I think the RF module and the product need marking. || If you ordered a module shown in its ad with FCC id attached there is a moderate chance that it would arrive without one. Asking the seller is essential and even then it may fail. | |

I think it highly likely your device is not formally certified but the product links above are interesting (perhaps :-) ) in that visually similar identical modules are sold with and without appended ID. I note that in at least some cases those without ID also were without brand (as yours is) and ID'd ones generally had a brand - usually to the left of "bgWiFin". Alas, in all cases but especially from China you cannot trust any labelling without bulletproof "provenance", if then. Which is essentially what I said in my 1st comment above :-(. | |

| Apr 18, 2015 at 13:46 | comment | added | Russell McMahon♦ | @Kate Apparently :-). Nice reference. Many thanks. But the ESP-12 is one of several ESP modules available and, based on the Alibaba and other photos that I've peered at, the ESP8266 is used in a range of physical configurations - none of which are entitled to use the FCC ID that you have cited. |AI-THINKER's page here has apparently good related material (Translating from Chinese isneeded bt most of us.) The top "latest topic" queries the FCC ID status :-(. What & why I as yet know not. | |
