FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Everything you need to know about Type Approval and certification.

What is Type Approval?

Type Approval is an administrative authorization issued by a national regulatory authority allowing a specific model of telecom or electronic equipment to be marketed and used on its territory.

How long does the certification process take?

Lead times vary by country, typically between 2 and 10 weeks depending on the authority, the product type and completeness of documentation.

Which documents are required?

Generally: technical specifications, test reports from accredited labs, power of attorney, user manual, photos and sometimes local representation documents.

Do I need local representation?

Most African and Middle-East countries require a local representative to file applications. U-STAND DRC provides this service through its partner network.

How long is a certificate valid?

Validity ranges from 1 year (most African countries) to unlimited (some European countries). Renewals must be anticipated to avoid service interruptions.

Can you handle multiple countries at once?

Absolutely. We coordinate multi-country filings with a single point of contact and unified reporting.

What products do you certify?

Smartphones, tablets, routers, modems, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth devices, IoT, RFID, GPS, 4G/5G equipment, radio, satellite, POS terminals, smart meters and more.

Do you work with laboratories?

Yes, we collaborate with accredited test laboratories worldwide to produce the required test reports.
