Japan JATE certification

Certification Introduction

JATE (Japan Approvals Institute for Telecommunications Equipment) certification is a compliance certification for telecommunications equipment. This certification is for communication equipment in Japan to ensure that the equipment complies with Japan's "Electrical Communication Business Law". All wireless products connected to public telephone or telecommunication networks must apply for JATE certification. Simply put, JATE certification is Japan's network access certification.

JATE certification is a mandatory certification for Japanese public network telecommunication equipment. Japan's Ministry of Public Administration and Internal Affairs, Posts and Telecommunications (MPHPT) stipulates in Japan's Telecommunications Business Law that Japanese telecommunications equipment implements compulsory certification. The Telecommunications Business Act, established in 1985, stipulates in Article 68 that the MPHPT authorizes qualified agencies to implement qualified accreditation of technical conditions.

MPHPT authorizes JATE (Japan Approvals Institute for Telecommunications Equipment) as a qualified agency to implement accreditation, so we are used to calling Japan telecommunications equipment certification JATE certification. JATE accreditation requires the certification mark to be affixed on the product, and the certification mark uses the serial number. Approved products, applicants, products, certification numbers and other relevant information will be announced in the Government Gazette and JATE's website.

 

Generally speaking, telecommunications products entering the Japanese market must meet the testing requirements of Japan's "Telecommunication Law" (JATE certification) and "Radio Wave Law" (TELEC certification).

Technical condition compliance certification ensures that telephone network equipment, wireless calling equipment, ISDN equipment, leased line equipment, etc. can meet the technical requirements (terminal equipment related regulations) formulated by MPHPT.

2. Technical Requirements Compliance Certification (Technical Requirements Compliance Certification)
Technical requirements compliance certification includes type approval and stand-alone certification. Technical requirements compliance certification ensures that wireless calling equipment, leased line equipment and other telecommunication equipment can meet certain technical requirements, which are formulated by telecom operators authorized by MPHPT.
