📋 Tender Overview
If you bring electronic equipment from abroad, make sure it is approved to ensure its operation in Peru. The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) reminds citizens that, according to the Specific Regulations for the Approval of Telecommunications Equipment and Devices, every device that enters the country must be approved to operate normally.
What is approval?
It is the procedure by which the MTC, through the General Directorate of Inspections and Sanctions in Communications, verifies that telecommunications equipment and devices, such as cell phones, tablets, smartwatches, antennas and transmitters comply with the technical requirements demanded by Peruvian regulations.
This process is key to guarantee the compatibility of the equipment with the countrys telecommunications networks. It also prevents damage to the telecommunications infrastructure and protects the safety of users, operators and third parties. In addition, it ensures the proper use of the radio spectrum and avoids electromagnetic interference.
How do you know if your equipment is approved?
If you are traveling to Peru with a recently manufactured or imported device, you can check its homologation on the digital platform of the Ministry of Transport and Communications: https://she.mtc.gob.pe/IEqHomGestionar/index. You only need to enter the brand and model of the device.
If your device is not registered, you must request a Homologation Certificate by following the steps detailed at: https://www.gob.pe/22738-solicitar-certificado-de-homologacion-para-un-equipo-y-o-aparato-de-telecomunicaciones-que-genera-emisiones-radioelectricas.
The homologation process can be carried out by any natural or legal person. However, it is recommended that it be managed by manufacturers, marketers or official distributors to avoid rejections due to lack of documentation or technical information.
Through approval, the MTC guarantees that you can use your electronic devices without problems throughout the national territory, ensuring a stable and interference-free connection.
