As GMA Consult Group informed earlier, Brazilian ANATEL introduced a new Telecommunications Products Reference List that determines products that are required to pass the conformity assessment procedure in the form of certification or declaration. The detailed approval procedure for products that are subject to declaration of conformity has not determined yet. That is why the ANATEL issues new act 3939 on June 1st, 2021 describing the Procedure for Telecommunications Approval in the form of Declaration of Conformity (DoC) for devices according to the List.

Now a company can directly register the product in ANATEL. However, this calls for the registration of the company on the ANATEL’s platform. The product itself must be registered on the platform and approved before putting into the Brazilian market.

The following documents will be required for approval procedure:

• Letter of Commercial Representation
• Documents with technical information on the product
• Internal and External Photos
• Factory Management System Certificate
• Test Reports
• Technical Compliance Statement

Please, note that test reports generally can only be considered valid for approval purposes up to 2 years after the date of initial issue of the report.

The test report may also be used by a third party for related product certification purposes when the owner of the report gave the relevant permission to use.
