Last week ANATEL released the Official Letter 429/2023. This letter officially confirms the ANATEL understanding that all testing reports (done in Brazil or abroad) must follow and meet the Act 4083 requirements, including the traceability information.

The most important fact of this letter is that from now on, it is not going to be possible to accept testing report done abroad before OCD validate the traceability letter and agree to start testing.

As known, according to Act 7280, ANATEL accept foreigner report for some specific products, such as non-RF Network switch for corporative/industrial use, OLT, Digital Multiplexer, Coaxial cables, some types of Optical cables, Satellite transceivers and some others.

Act 4083 stipulates in item 6.3.1.5 that before starting the test, the manufacturer or applicant MUST formally communicate to the OCD (ANATEK Certification Body) the following:

I - The manufacturing unit where the sample was produced; and

II - The traceability of the sample submitted for testing.

Due to this new information, foreigner laboratory must only start testing after OCD.
