CRAN

The Communications Regulatory Authority of Nambia (CRAN) is the regulatory authority established in the Republic of Namibia under the Namibia Communications Regulatory Authority Act of 2012. In accordance with Article 21 of the Act, CRAN has powers to issue regulations concerning type approval.

In general CRAN requires that all telecommunications terminal equipment and all radio equipment must be registered for type approval.  CRAN publishes a list of technical specifications and corresponding equipment types subject to registration. If an equipment type does not appear in the list or there is not an applicable technical specification then BOCRA will decide, on a case- by-case basis, whether an application for type approval may be made and what technical requirements will apply. CRAN reserves the right to decline any application for registration.

Equipment that meets the technical specifications published by CRAN and which has been registered with CRAN is type approved for the purposes of the Act. A registration may specify conditions which must be complied with if the type approval is to apply.

Sigmatics regulatory division has the requisite experience, expertise and product knowledge to help you obtain your Type Approval Certificate from CRAN within the stipulated period.
