Type Approval for Venezuela
Type approvals in Venezuela are regimented by CONATEL, the Comisión Nacional de Telecomunicaciones. The approvals of Radio equipment are based on American (FCC) standards or European (EU) standards, for smooth market access. We cooperate directly with CONATEL in Caracas, which means that certificates of conformity can be obtained in the shortest possible time. The homologation process in Venezuela requires neither local laboratory tests nor contact with local representatives. The certificates have an unlimited validity period, which minimizes the manufacturer's effort to obtain a certificate of conformity in Venezuela. There are also no additional product labeling requirements. If you have any questions about the conformity requirements in South American countries, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our knowledgeable and trained team will be happy to assist you with product certification and applicable standards.
