Type Approval for Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea: NICTA changes Type Approval Certificate Validity

In Papua New Guinea, the conformity assessment for the type approval of wireless equipment is managed by the National Information & Communications Technology Authority (NICTA) based in Port Moresby. Because NICTA aligns its requirements with European (EU) standards, manufacturers can entirely bypass additional local compliance testing. The evaluation focuses on ensuring the efficient use of the radio spectrum, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and robust electrical safety, resulting in a Declaration of Compliance valid for three years.

Navigating these requirements is seamless with Spectrum Nexus. Working directly with NICTA, we eliminate the need for a local representative and fast track the homologation of your product. From compiling mandatory documentation to final approval, our dedicated team handles the regulatory heavy lifting to get your devices to market in the shortest possible time.
