SRRC Radio Type Approval Introduction

Effective June 1999, the Ministry of Information Industry(MII) made it mandatory for all equipment with radio module for sale and use in China to obtain Radio Type Approval. The State Radio Regulation Center(SRRC) which is under the MII is the only designated certification organization for Radio Type Approval. The State Radio Monitoring Center (SRMC) is the only designated testing organization .

At present, China authority has set special frequency range for different radio transmitting equipment. Hence, not all frequencies could be used legitimately in China. In other words, the radio transmitting equipment sold or used in China will be using different frequencies. Applicants should pay attention to the applied equipment’s restricted provision. Radio Type Approval as well as China Compulsory Certification (CCC) and/or Network Access License(MII) has to be applied.
