TEC/MTCTE Approval

TEC/MTCTE Approval Services

In India, all telecom and networking equipment must comply with the standards set by the Telecommunication Engineering Centre (TEC), a division of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT). To regulate this, the government introduced the Mandatory Testing and Certification of Telecom Equipment (MTCTE) framework, making it compulsory for manufacturers and importers to get TEC Certification before launching their products in the Indian market.

At SS Global Services, we provide end-to-end consultancy for TEC/MTCTE Approval, ensuring that your telecom and IT products meet the required standards for performance, safety, and interoperability.

What is TEC/MTCTE Approval?

TEC Approval is a mandatory certification for telecom equipment to ensure that it meets technical and safety parameters defined by TEC. The MTCTE scheme, introduced in 2019, requires products to be tested in accredited Indian labs before they can be sold or imported.

Product categories that fall under TEC/MTCTE certification include:

  • Mobile handsets, tablets & smart devices with SIM
  • Routers, modems, and switches
  • Smart watches with SIM capability
  • Transmission equipment and base stations
  • IoT and M2M communication devices
  • Servers, gateways, and network equipment

Why is TEC/MTCTE Approval Important?

  • Mandatory Compliance – Required under Indian Telegraph Rules, 2017.
  • Market Access – Non-certified telecom equipment cannot be sold in India.
  • Consumer Safety – Ensures devices operate safely and efficiently.
  • Avoid Penalties – Prevents product bans, fines, or confiscation at customs.
  • Brand Trust – Boosts credibility with customers, distributors, and regulators.
