Hi Randy,

For C-tick labeled products, Australia's Radiocommunications (Compliance Labelling - Incidental Emissions) Notice 2001 says records must be kept "...for 5 years after the device has ceased to be supplied in Australia..." The records to be kept are more than just a test report, of course.

The Labelling Notice is here:

Hope this helps,

Can anyone give me the record retention requirements for FCC Part 15,
CE-Mark, and C-Tick certifications?  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!
