Type Approval for Sri Lanka

Type approval procedures in Sri Lanka are regulated by the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC). The conformity requirements are similar to those of the European Union (Declaration of conformity according to EU directive 2014/53/EU), so that the existing EU DoC and test reports can be used. We are supported by a local partner, who directly cooperates with the authority in Colombo, whereby certificates or exemption letters can be acquired within a short processing time. The homologation process in Sri Lanka does not require local laboratory testing or contact with local representatives. However, a product sample can be requested from the authority for viewing. Certificates have a limited validity period of 4 years and the approved products require additional marking on the packaging. If you have any questions regarding the conformity requirements in Sri Lanka, please do not hesitate to contact us.
