Thanks Robert, read through your link, updated my notes.
I probably didn’t have any data for HK since my rep has previously indicated no approval necessary, everything we’ve shipped there is on the exempt list, but obviously not universally the case. ________________________________ From: Rudd, Adam Sent: Friday, January 28, 2011 12:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [PSES] RFID in Macau/HongKong Notes I have for those two nations: Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China OFTA (Office of the Telecommunications Authority) Type Approval “Voluntary Certification Scheme” (VCS) or the “Compulsory Certification Scheme” (CCS). Radio equipment classified under the CCS must be granted a type-approval before it can be offered for sale in Hong Kong. Devices classified under the VCS can be used or marketed in Hong Kong without obtaining type-approval. Type-approval can be obtained on a voluntary basis. See Order I402 exemptions. Type-approval acceptance can be based on a review of test reports issued by foreign accredited laboratory using equivalent standards.

It is difficult to find any RF device that needs to have a formal certification, except, I believe broadcast transmitters and perhaps cell base stations. I copy Mr. Lawrence Kwan who is with Hong Kong OFTA. There are certification bodies that can assess your device to the requirements as Hong Kong and the US have an MRA under the APEC TEL arrangement. http://www.apec.org/en/Press/Features/2 10/0906_Fostering_International_Trade_Ten_Years_of_MRA_Success.aspx Mike Violette [email protected] Washington Laboratories Radio Frequency and Electrical Safety 301 216-1500 cell: 240 401 1388 ________________________________ From: Aboo [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2011 9:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] RFID in Macau/HongKong Dear Experts, Is there any radio requirement for RFID products in Macau/HongKong(as FCC in US)?
