Overview
The Federal Institute of Telecommunications (IFT) recently concluded a public consultation on draft guidelines for using the IFT Seal on various products, including smartphones, computers, smart televisions, and video game consoles. The goal of this process, led by the regulatory body, was to introduce a recognizable graphic element to the labeling of these products. It also aimed to outline the provisions and specifications for approval certificate holders, subsidiaries, and importers when using this seal.
This distinctive element will make it easier for end users to identify and recognize approved products. It will enhance international recognition, reinforcing the legal framework for assessing conformity and approving telecommunications and broadcasting equipment entering the Mexican market. The regulatory impact analysis highlights the importance of these measures as new technologies, like 5G networks, bring a variety of cellular phone equipment into the market.
