One further note:  I believe a U.S. lab that is accredited by either AALA or
NVLAP is considered a "certified" lab under mutual recognition agreement.
However, I'm not sure of the current status of the MRA.

Subject:  RE: C Tick..




George you can find a complete description of the requirements at
http://www.sma.gov.au/ <http://www.sma.gov.au/> .
Only emissions are required. The person residing in Australia and responsible
for placing the product on the market is responsible for making the application.
Reports are not required to be submitted, but must be available for inspection.
Existing reports are acceptable, however, the authorities have the right to
accept reports only from certified labs.

 Subject:  C Tick..

 Good day,

 I was asked to investigate what is required to obtain the "C tick"
for
 our products.

 Our products have been evaluated to the applicable stds as
prescribed by
 the EMC directive for ITE equipment (emissions & immunity).


 My Questions:

 I understand that the c tick marking is a required marking of EMC approval for
 electronic devices.  Does this cover both emissions & immunity ?   or just
 emissions ?

 Can I request applications myself (I'm in the USA) or do I need an Australian
 rep to do this ?

 Could I present my existing reports / certificates (created to
satisfy
 EMC directive), or am I required to generate new ones in a specified (ACA)
 report format.

 Thanks for any help you can give me.
 George
