Requirements for Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment

Type approval of electronic communications equipment is one of the basic compliance obligations set out in the legislation governing electronic communications.

Section 35 of the Electronic Communications Act sets the obligation in respect of the type approval of electronic communications equipment and facilities before they can be used, supplied, sold, offered for sale, leased or hired. On 26 August 2013, ICASA published new Type Approval Regulations. All the devices with telecommunications interface require the ICASA type approval certificate.
