Type Approval for Malawi

All Regions » Africa » Malawi
The regulatory requirements of type approvals in the Republic of Malawi are defined by the Malawi Communications Regulatory Authority (MACRA) based in Blantyre. To enable your smooth market access in Malawi, we provide support throughout the entire approval process, from compilation of application documents to acceptance of the completed certificate and advice on national label requirements. In Malawi, conformity assessment follows applicable European (EU) standards for effective use of the radio spectrum, electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety, therefore no testing accompanying certification is required. In general, neither a local representative, nor a national conformity label are required. Therefore, we can shorten the term in direct cooperation with MACRA for the homologation of your product in Malawi. After successful verification of the documents, MACRA issues a Type Approval Certificate valid indefinitely. If you have any questions regarding the homologation of equipment in Malawi, our experienced team will be happy to assist you.
