Randall, I was under the impression that the statement of compliance/Declaration Of Conformity for Australia had to be held and signed by a Registered Australian Company. This would mean that if you were not registered as an Australian company your importer would do this for you. They would be more likely to sign the declaration if your test results were from an Accredited body. From what I have read there is no compulsory requirement for EMC testing to be performed accredited test lab for non-telecommunications equipment, but a product's compliance is less likely to be questioned if its test results come from a NATA-recognised lab.
