Product Marketing After Certificate Issuance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ANATEL certificate will be issued once all document submissions, local testing, and payments have been completed. The issuance of a certificate does not automatically mean the product can be marketed immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, many countries enforce labeling requirements. Similarly, in Malaysia, mandatory labeling must be completed after the certificate is issued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more detailed requirements, you can refer to our previous article on label requirements for Malaysia type approval<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s everything you need to know about the cost to apply for Malaysia type approval. Knowing this from the start will certainly help you plan your certification budget more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essentially, applying for Malaysia type approval involves costs that depend on the device being submitted. Issues related to the cost of applying for Malaysian type approval can cause delays in marketing your product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partnering with Dimulti will eliminate all your RF type approval issues, including certification funding concerns. We can cover all certification application costs upfront. You can pay the full amount only after the certificate is issued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That way, you can focus on product development or other needs. Leave the certification process to us until the certification is issued. We will ensure the RF type approval process is completed effectively and efficiently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
