Nepal
Telecommunications Authority (NTA) has relaxed the type approval certification
procedures.
The
authority today issued the consultation paper on ´Type Approval Procedure of
Radio Telecommunications Customer-Provided Equipments (CPEs).
Earlier, it
was mandatory for all the mobile sets to receive type approval certification before being sold in the market.
Since the mobile
density is increasing with the number of cheap handsets entering the country,
the certification procedure has been relaxed until a new provision, it said,
adding that the authority has discussed with the stakeholders before relaxing
the certification.
From now onwards, the traders
should make commitment to provide warranty or guarantee on their products, set
up repair or service centers and provide compensation for injury caused by
faulty handsets, according to the new rule that has also set the benchmark
values for battery parameter like nominal voltage, maximum and minimum charge
voltage and receiver sensitivity and specific absorption rate of handsets.
