21.7.2017
We would like to inform you that we have received information regarding the mandatory certification for energy efficiency regulations in the Republic of Belarus.
Starting from September 1, 2017, the Belarusian government will implement a mandatory certification system for energy efficiency regulations. Previously, the Republic of Belarus had already begun requiring safety standard certifications for wireless/telecommunication equipment from February 1, 2017. With the introduction of this energy efficiency certification system by product category, which will come into effect on September 1, 2017, it appears to be in line with the current global trends. Therefore, if your target market is the Republic of Belarus, please pay particular attention to this matter.
