That's not a good assumption, as UL has several offices and labs in China.

I disagree. For categories of products that are found to be at high risk of counterfeiting, UL requires hologram labels, which are not cheap & easy to manufacture. SGS probably does the same. They also are aggressive at prosecuting. When I was at UL, I've heard of entire containers of counterfeit products being destroyed, rather than allowing them to go back and be shipped again illegally. (UL works with US Customs)
