Understanding The Path to Certifying Your Matter Devices

As more Internet of Things (IoT) devices for smart homes come to market, it's more important than ever to prove your products are reliable, secure, and compatible. Matter certification is the leading industry standard for smart home devices. Obtaining Matter certification proves your product can be trusted inside the end-users' home while providing a consistent smart home experience across devices.

In this whitepaper, we teach you everything you need to know to successfully complete the Matter certification for your IoT device. We walk you through the eight steps of the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) certification process and share how a Matter certification should be considered throughout the development and testing phases of product development.

We go in depth about the key considerations of product design through the lens of Matter certification requirements, including the following:

• Choosing the right network transport option
• Selecting the right development kits
• Considering security needs

And we answer your most-asked questions about the Matter certification and testing process such as:

• Where and when do I send my Matter device for CSA certification?
• How do I test a Matter device against certification requirements before officially submitting the device for CSA certification?

We also provide a complete list of documents to submit to CSA for certification and share the alternative certification paths for products in the same family (Product Family Certification) or similar products (Certification by Similarity).
