3. Telecom equipment is subject to obligatory confirmation of
conformity when it is connected with wire, opticfibre or radio
interface to Common Telecommunication Network of Russian
Federation.
There are two forms of conformity assessment: obligatory
certification or declaration of conformity, depending upon type
of equipment.

or declaration or any other special
approval for radio equipment in Russia
or Custom Union at all.
Radio equipment may independetly fall
under several CU or National
regulations.
It's shown by diagram below.
By the way an HS-code dosn't matter for
any approvals in telecommunication
area at all.

Telecom Network) to transfer data, voice, broadcasting etc. or provide any services

Federal register of FAC certificates and FAC declarations
Why everybody makes an effort to approve telecom equipment if it’s voluntary, no
obligatory mark, no penalty for violation?
There are two simple reasons:
1) nobody buys consumer electronic if it’s not approved;
2) telecom operator never gets commercial
licence to provide any commercial services if its equipment and soft not approved by FAC
15. No direct recognition of any other overseas certificates, declarations, test reports and factory
inspections
Our partner labs can reissue CB/CE reports in accordance with telecom requirements
without retesting if they find all necessary information in your test reports and
documentations

representative company

no similar models in FAC declaration
