I believe you need to conform with specification DPT-TE-001, 006 &
018. These are:
"General Standards for telecommunication line terminal equipment for
connection to the public swiched telecommunication network (PSTN)",
"Functional requirements for facsimile transcievers"
and "Functional requirements for data modems"

Good luck. Watch out for the modem quality tests in the last two
specifications. It's good practise to make sure your modem connects
at the full rate with a very attenuated input signal, but S.A is the
only country I have seen (in my limited experience) that insists on
this.
