1 Introduction

1.1 The Info-communications Media Development Authority of Singapore (“IMDA”) recognises

conformity assessment bodies (“CAB”) designated by the Designating Authority of Mutual 

Recognition Arrangement (“MRA”) partners, and accepts results of the conformity assessment 

performed by these bodies to IMDA’s technical regulations and administrative arrangements.

1.2 This document outlines the process to be followed, and the conditions and requirements to be 

fulfilled by these foreign CABs (testing laboratories or certification bodies) seeking recognition 

to perform conformity assessment to the IMDA technical regulations.

1.3 Designation means the authorisation by a Designating Authority (“DA”) of a CAB to undertake 

specified conformity assessment activities under the terms of an MRA. This may include 

procedures defined by IMDA for telecommunication equipment and the associated 

electromagnetic compatibility (“EMC”) and/or electrical safety requirements.

1.4 Foreign testing laboratories and certification bodies may contact their Designating Authorities 

for designation and notification to IMDA provided that their countries have an MRA with IMDA 

Singapore. For more information, please refer to the IMDA website.

3 Definitions

Accreditation Body (“AB”) is a body appointed by a Party to conduct and administer an 

accreditation system that grants accreditation to testing laboratories or certification bodies for 

conformity assessment of telecommunication equipment. 

Administrative Arrangements are publicly available procedures or legal arrangements within 

a Party’s jurisdiction which have impact on the conformity assessment procedures for 

telecommunication equipment within the scope of an MRA. 

Conformity Assessment is any activity concerned with determining that the relevant 

requirements are fulfilled. Typical examples of conformity assessment activities are testing, 

evaluation, verification, assurance of conformity (supplier’s declaration and certification), 

registration, accreditation and approval as well as their combinations.

Conformity Assessment Body (“CAB”) refers to a third party or a supplier’s Testing 

Laboratory (“TL”), or a Certification Body (“CB”) that performs conformity assessment to an 

importing Party’s Technical Regulations.

Designating Authority (“DA”) is a body with authority and competence to designate, list, verify 

the compliance of, limit the designation of, and withdraw the designation of CABs within its 

jurisdiction. 

Designated CAB refers to a conformity assessment body (TL or CB) designated by DA (IMDA) 

or DA (MRA partner).

Designated TL refers to a Testing Laboratory designated by DA (IMDA) or DA (MRA partner).

Designated CB refers to a Certification Body designated by DA (IMDA) or DA (MRA partner).

Party refers to a member country that chooses to join an MRA.

Supplier refers to the party that is responsible for ensuring that products meet and, if applicable, 

continue to meet, the requirements on which the certification is based.

Technical Regulations are those technical requirements, legislative and regulatory provisions, 

and administrative arrangements that a Party has specified pertaining to the registration, testing 

or certification of equipment in which compliance is mandatory.

Telecommunications equipment or equipment refers to line terminal equipment and radiocommunication equipment.

5 Scope of Accreditation and Designation

5.1 An MRA partner may accredit and designate TLs to carry out tests to one or more of the 

applicable IMDA technical regulations for the line terminal and/or radio-communication 

equipment under test (see Annex 2).

5.2 An MRA partner may accredit and designate CBs to certify equipment to one or more of the 

applicable IMDA technical regulations under the scope for line terminal and/or radiocommunication equipment in Annex 2. The scope of equipment permitted is dependent on the 

CBs’ core testing capabilities, knowledge and expertise in evaluating test data and reports to 

the IMDA technical regulations. The minimum set of testing capabilities expected of CBs to be 

considered for a particular scope of accreditation and designation is substantiated by supporting 

evidence that CBs’ evaluation activities are performed with internal and/or external resources 

accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 as required by ISO/IEC 17065 for product certification.
