C-Tick Labelling of Wireless Devices originally sold in Australia, also for sale in NZ - 12 Feb 2009
There's a lot of confusion regarding the use of the C-Tick mark, compliance folders and the mutual acceptance criteria between the ACMA (Australia) and Radio Spectrum Management (New Zealand).
Where radio products fall within levels of conformity A1, A2 and A3 (note 802.11x and Bluetooth are A1) and they have been labelled with an Australian Supplier Code Number and the C-Tick compliance mark for supply to the Australian market and these products are then supplied to the New Zealand market, the NZ RSM does not require the supplier to remove the Australian Supplier Code Number and the C-Tick compliance mark.
The supplier or their agent must, however, apply a New Zealand Supplier Code Number label to the product and hold a compliance folder for the product New Zealand. For Australian or International companies that do not a local NZ entity, we offer our local agent services for only a few hundred $$. We hold compliance folders on-line, in New Zealand, Australia, Singapore and other countries. |
