The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China (MIIT) issued Notice on the Radio Management for the 2400MHz, 5100MHz and 5800MHz bands. The new regulations are going to be effective from January 1, 2022. At the moment the following four Regulations will be cancelled:

‍

• Notice on updating the 2.4GHz frequency band transmit power limit and related issues (信部无[2002] №353)
• Notice on the use of 5.8GHz frequency band (信部无 [2002] No. 277)
• Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning the Special Wireless Short-range Communication System for Intelligent Traffic Management in the 5.8GHz Frequency Band (信部无 [2003] No. 225)
• Notice on Issues Related to the Frequency Use of Wireless Access System in the 5150-5350MHz Frequency Band (信部无 [2012] No. 620)

So, it is supposed that approval of radio transmitting equipment can be carried out on the base of the four above-mentioned regulations up to December 31, 2021. Previously certified equipment doesn’t require recertification. However, once the validity period of the certificate is expired it is necessary to apply for renewal against new technical regulations requirements.

Please, note that according to the new regulation the wireless LAN devices with IP address allocation function should support the IPv6 protocol and enable the IPv6 address allocation function by default.
