ANATEL Approves New Regulations to Streamline Telecom Product Certification

Published /Brazil

ANATEL Approval of Public Consultation 33 of 2017

ANATEL approved Public Consultation 33 of 2017, which addresses the revocation of the two main certification resolutions: Resolution 242 and Resolution 323.

Changes to Approval Process

The new regulations change the approval process by eliminating the Category system for Telecom products. This change aims to enhance the speed of the approval process in Brazil by simplifying procedures and reducing red tape when requesting Certificates of Conformity, while still maintaining high standards of quality and safety for consumers.

Support from Leadership

This initiative, started by Anatel in July 2019, has received full support from Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, who aims to make Brazil a more attractive market for manufacturers.

Resolution Enforcement

The new resolution was published today and will come into effect in April 2020.
