On October 13, 2026, the Malaysian Institute of Standards and Industry (SIRIM) issued announcement SQASI/CMCS/1/26/011, notifying that the technical specifications for MCMC MTSFB TC T022:2026 "Basic Requirements for Communication Equipment" include electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) rules, and that all EMC emission and immunity requirements will be fully implemented on November 5, 2026.

• With the implementation of the new regulations, an assessment fee for EMC immunity has been added. For new model approval applications, EMC emission assessment remains at the original 300 MYR; If using an external lab-issued immunity test report, an additional 500 MYR assessment fee must be paid; using SIRIM's own laboratory report is exempt from this additional fee;
• For existing products that have already obtained model approval, the original regular renewal channel is no longer applicable. Enterprises must submit a Parallel Comparison Application (PBC), completing compliance assessment only for the immunity item, with the fee standard consistent with the new application. Products lacking relevant data on immunity must undergo corresponding testing.
