TOKYO, Sept. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

DEKRA has been accredited as a Registered Certification Body (RCB) for

telecommunication and radio equipment by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and

Communications (MIC) in Japan.

The certification scope of the new RCB includes equipment that emits radio

waves or is connected to the public network in Japan. MIC certification is

required for certain categories of radio devices prior to placing on the

Japanese market. As a neutral third-party testing laboratory, DEKRA tests and

certifies the compliance of products according to the technical requirements of

the Radio Act and the Telecommunications Business Act of Japan. As various

documents are required already in the application stage of the certification,

DEKRA also supports customers in the preparation of these documents.

"The MIC recognition is a milestone in our strategy to expand our Global Market

Access (GMA) solutions and to support our customers with a smooth entry to the

Japanese market. We can carry out all the necessary tests for a MIC

certification in our laboratories, ensuring an efficient and fast approval

process to the Japanese and global markets from a single source. We offer, for

example, Notified Body (NB) certifications for an access to the European

market, and as a Telecommunications Certification Body (TCB), we also help

customers attain FCC certification for the U.S.," explained Cesar Valencia,

Business Line Certification Director of Service Division Product Testing at

DEKRA. "Our customers can benefit from DEKRA's comprehensive GMA services to

sell their products worldwide and choose the DEKRA Mark to demonstrate that

their products have been thoroughly tested and meet required international

standards."

"With this new service DEKRA Japan will be able to support clients of radio and

telecom products complementing the existing solutions for Mobile Network

Carriers IOT device acceptance process," highlighted Miguel Delorme,

Representative Director of DEKRA Certification Japan.

In addition, the DEKRA Mobile Carriers Laboratory in Japan offers Docomo

interoperability testing ensuring that tested devices are compatible with the

Docomo cellular network. DEKRA is also recognized as a Certification Body by

the Japanese government to issue JPEx certificates for products used in

potentially explosive environments.
