The Ente Nacional de Comunicaciones (ENACOM) is the official authority responsible for regulating telecommunications equipment and radio frequency (RF) devices in the Argentine Republic. It ensures that all Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and wireless devices comply with national technical standards to ensure interoperability and spectrum safety.

Argentina utilizes a mandatory certification system that requires strict adherence to local protocols. Unlike some jurisdictions, ENACOM requires local testing performed by accredited laboratories within Argentina for most RF technologies. Additionally, a Local Representative (Holder) based in Argentina is mandatory to manage the certificate. Once issued, ENACOM certificates are typically valid for three years and must be renewed to remain compliant. Standard processing times generally range from 8 to 14 weeks, depending on laboratory availability and equipment type.

ENACOM also has special requirements for labeling, issued by RAMATEL. It is mandatory to enter the Argentine Market. We fast track your Argentinian market entry by tailoring an approval strategy to your specific product needs. From managing test samples to ensuring compliant labeling and handling all lab communications, we take the complexity out of the process. With deep expertise in South American regulations, we provide the competent support you need to launch in Argentina with confidence.
