South Africa ICASA Testing & Certification,What is ICASA Testing & Certification ?

South Africa ICASA certification. For wireless communication equipment exported to the South African market, it is necessary to apply for model certification to the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA). It can be sold only after passing the review, which is also equivalent to the domestic network model approval.

Then, when applying for South African ICASA certification, you need to note that ICASA certification can only be issued to local registered companies or representative organizations in South Africa. Therefore, it is best for domestic manufacturers to apply for ICASA by local importers, but the test can be completed domestically. If you have such needs, please contact us for detailed consultation. Our experienced professional engineers at Luxshare will answer your questions.
