On February 13, 2026, the Communications Regulatory Commission (CRC) of Mongolia officially implemented the Regulations on the Certification of Information and Communication Technology Equipment approved by CRC Resolution 24 of 2026. This regulatory update aims to improve the mandatory and voluntary compliance assessment process for radio and communications equipment, with a focus on human health, environmental safety, and efficient spectrum management.

Main requirements:

• Mandatory scope: All equipment listed in the official "Mandatory Conformity Assurance Product Catalogue" must be certified;
• Technical parameters: The equipment must strictly follow the "National Radio Frequency Distribution Table" and comply with international standards on radio frequency (RF), electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electrical safety.
• Validity of certification schemes: The new framework introduces specific certification schemes (including schemes 1a, 4, 6 and 7) with validity periods ranging from 3 to 4 years, depending on the type of equipment and origin;
• The conformity assessment process includes a document review and may involve sampling testing by the CRC. Although test reports from accredited international laboratories are generally accepted, manufacturers need to be aware of the new market surveillance requirements. Certified products are subject to annual review – the first review will take place one year after the certificate is issued – to ensure that they continue to comply with Mongolia's standards.
• Once a certificate of conformity is obtained, manufacturers should affix an official "certification mark" to their equipment.
