Chile Reminds Industry of Upcoming QR Code Requirements

Following our earlier update on Chile’s QR code obligations for SRD approvals, authorities have issued a reminder of the key measures that will take effect soon. These requirements affect both new approvals and devices already certified.

Key Points

• QR code placement
  Must appear on product packaging. If this is not feasible, the QR code may be placed on the device or included in printed materials (e.g., user manual).

• QR code content
  Must link to a Spanish-language webpage that follows the mandated format and content rules.

• Retroactive implementation
  Applies to previously certified devices. Products approved from applications filed up to February 21, 2026 may continue using a QR code that links directly to the approval certificate.

• Public information obligations
  Certificate holders must maintain a publicly accessible website containing all required product information.

These modifications will enter into force on February 22, 2026.
