The Autorité Nationale de Regulation des Telecommunications (ARTP), Niger’s Regulatory Authority, published new information regarding their Standard vs Simplified Procedure for Type Approvals:
The Simplified procedure is only possible in case a Certificate of Conformity has been issued by recognized Conformity Assessment Bodies (CAB) or Regulatory Authorities. In all other cases, the Standard procedure is mandatory. At present, only the Standard procedure is in place, however the ARTP is currently working on agreements with Regulatory Authorities and CABs to get the Simplified procedure established.
When a device has been approved, following information must appear on its label:
Approval date and number;
Identification of the model, lot or serial number;

VietnamTest Report Requirements for 2G and 3G Devices
MIC, Vietnam’s Ministry of Information and Communications, announced that as of 2017-06-01 local test reports for 2G and/or 3G devices will no longer be accepted for Type Approval.
Applications for these products must have test reports (for the 2G/3G portion) issued by a recognized foreign laboratory, as listed on MIC’s MRA list for 2G/3G.
Due to the numerous complaints from local importers and local manufacturers about this new policy, MIC appears to be reconsidering their decision. A final decision by MIC is expected soon. Until then, local test reports for 2G/3G technology are no longer accepted.

The following information has been obtained regarding the reinstated Type Approval policy:
No online application (only paperwork)
No samples required
5 year validity for the certificates
Foreign manufacturers still allowed to hold the Approval
3-4 weeks estimated lead-time
No requirements for labelling
It is yet to be determined which equipment type is affected by the new policy and what impact it may have on products already on the market.
