Thank you very much, Kevin and others.
In addition, IC recommends a Canadian representative signed letter accompanies
each application to speed up the certification process.
An IC officer gave me the following labeling clarification:
1. If a marketing company would like to use the OEM's ID number, the marketing
company is allowed to use its name (marketing company name). However, the
name of the certificate holder (OEM), model number, and ID number must in an
user accessible location (such as battery compartment).
2. If a marketing company would like to use its own ID (not expose any
original manufacturer's information), a marketing company requests an
authorization letter from the OEM and file "multiple listing" with the IC.

Grace,
Don't forget that your client will require a Canadian representative to
hold
the certification and test reports in-case the product is audited.

Grace, Charles
My understanding is that model number and brand name on the
label need to
match the information related to the IC number that is detailed on Canada's
Radio Equipment List (REL) ... follow the link on the left side of Industry
Canada's wireless certification page ht
p://strategis.ic.gc.ca/epic/site/ceb-bhst.nsf/en/h_tt00010e.html
There are ways to get variants with a new model number with the
same brand
name (family listing) or different brand name (multiple listing) onto the REL
but these do require that an application be filed and, in the case of a
multiple listing, the new company have a Canadian Company Number.
Regards
Mark

Hi Grace,
I ran into this issue too! Although the
standard states very specifically that it must be
the manufacturers name etc on the label, you can – by going
through a
TCB, get the
label listed the way you describe.

Industry Canada
Dear Members,
Could someone please advise if a marketing company is able
to mark an Industry Canada
certified OEM product by using the manufacturer's (applicant's)
IC number
and the marketing company's name and model number?
I excerpt Section 5.2 of RSS-Gen below for your convenience.
If yes for the above question, is there any procedure
we or our OEM supplier has to follow (permissive change, etc.) ?
Thank you and look forward to hear from you.
Best regards,
Grace Lin

All
Category I radio equipment intended for use in Canada shall
permanently
display on
each transmitter, receiver, or inseparable combination thereof,
the
applicant's
name (i.e. manufacturer's name, trade name or brand name),
model number and
certification number. This information shall be affixed in such
a manner as
not
to be removable except by destruction or defacement. The size
of the
lettering
shall be legible without the aid of magnification but is not
required to be
larger than 8-point font size. If the device is too small to
meet this
condition, the information can be included in the user manual
upon agreement
with Industry Canada .
The
label for medical implants which are designed to be used within
the human
body,
can be placed on the package and user manual.
The
certification number is made up of a Company Number (CN)
assigned by the
Bureau
followed by the Unique Product Number (UPN ), assigned by the
applicant.
The
certification number shall appear as follows:
"IC:
XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYY"
Where:
* "XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYY" is the certification number;
* "XXXXXX" is the Company Number (CN) assigned by
Industry Canada ,
made of at most 6 alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9), including a letter at
the end of the CN to distinguish between different company addresses;
* "YYYYYYYYYYY" is the Unique Product Number (UPN )
assigned by the
applicant, made of at most 11 alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9); and
* the letters "IC" have no other meaning or purpose than
to identify
the Industry Canada certification number.
Permitted
alphanumerical characters used in the CN and UPN are limited to
capital
letters (A-Z) and digits (0-9). An example of the new format
for a company
having a CN of "21A" and wishing to use a UPN of "WILAN3"
would thus be: IC: 21A-WILAN3. Each equipment model shall be
explicitly
identified. The use of characters, such as #, / or -, in the
certification
number is not allowed. The use of "wild card" characters in the
model
number (for the purpose of identifying multiple models with one
name) is not
allowed.
Equipment
that has received certification but is not labelled with the
applicant's
name,
model number and the certification number as outlined above is
not considered
certified.
Category
II equipment shall be labelled in accordance with the
requirements of RSS
-310.
