Randall, As Fred Borda pointed out, for Australia (both C-Tick and A-Tick) is 5 years for all documentation held in the product Compliance Folder starting from the time the device is no longer supplied in Australia. NOTE This may be different to being considered obsolete.
In addition, if there is any modification introduced, even after the device is no longer available for purchase such as a repair involving an ECO (Engineering Change Order) which may impact compliance, the 5 years would commence from the time of the repair which introduced the ECO'd modification.

How long must we keep the test reports once the product has gone obsolete? I believe this to be 2 years from the last date of manufacture for FCC but can't seem to find the section in the regs. Not sure where to even look for this information within the EMC directive or C-Tick framework. Any suggestions on where this information is located would be helpful. Thanks!
