Expanding into new markets is exciting—but it also comes with its fair share of regulatory checkpoints. In Chad, the key step is obtaining Type Approval from ARCEP (Agence de Régulation des Communications Électroniques et de la Poste).


Whether you’re dealing with smartphones, IoT devices, routers, or RF modules, ARCEP approval is your entry ticket to the Chadian telecom market.


The Process at a Glance


Think of this as your roadmap slide for Chad ARCEP:


Timeline → 2–4 weeks

Certificate Validity → 5 years

Device Sample → 1 physical sample required

Local Representative → Mandatory and our local team provides this service

Labeling → Not required (a nice bonus!)


Documentation Checklist


Your approval journey requires a well-prepared file. Here’s the “must-have pack”:


  •  Technical Literature (User Manual, Data Sheet)

  •  Declaration of Conformity (DoC)

  •  RF, EMC, Health & Safety Test Reports

  •  GSMA TAC Letter (for cellular devices)

 

Pro tip: Chad’s framework aligns with ETSI (EU) standards, so if your device is already tested in the EU, you’re ahead of the curve. If you have CE repots, we may be able to waive the sample for you.
