If you are a telecom equipment manufacturer or importer, getting approval from TEC (Telecommunication Engineering Center) under the MTCTE scheme is mandatory before you can sell your products in India.
At Adept Compliance Solutions, we make the process of obtaining TEC Certification under MTCTE simple and quick. From identifying the correct product category to completing documentation and lab testing, our expert team ensures you’re fully compliant with the Government of India’s telecom equipment standards.
TEC (Telecommunication Engineering Center) is the technical wing of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), Government of India. It ensures that telecom equipment used in India complies with national technical and safety standards.
The Mandatory Testing and Certification of Telecommunication Equipment (MTCTE) scheme requires that certain telecom and network equipment must undergo testing and certification before import, sale, or use in India.
Routers, modems, switches
Wi-Fi access points
Mobile base stations
Transmission equipment
Smart IoT devices with SIM/Wi-Fi
Media gateways, IP routers, repeaters
Mobile signal boosters
Other network interfaces and telecom devices
More products are added to the MTCTE list regularly. We stay updated so you don’t have to.
