Before starting an approval process, there will be some questions comes to mind. One of them must be about the requirements, especially the required documents. Document is one of the important parts of an approval process. Through the submitted documents, authority will be able to evaluate the application before deciding whether the product complies to the applied standard or not. Therefore, we need to pay extra attention on preparing the documents. We also need to make sure that the provided documents are sufficient. So, our application can be accepted by the authority without having any issue.

Particularly for Japan Type Approval, the requested documents are quite simple. However, prior to the process we still need to make sure whether the provided documents are sufficient and relevant to the product or not. So, if you’re about to apply Japan type approval for your telecommunication products, here is the list of required documents:

  1. Test report
  2. User manual (Japanese version)
  3. Antenna specifications
  4. Component layout diagram
  5. Parts list and circuit diagram (RF section)
  6. Block diagram
  7. External and internal photographs

Some types of products or particular application method may require additional documents. So, before starting the process, deeper analysis toward the product is required in order to decide what documents are exactly needed for the process.

Why We Care

Without having complete documents, the approval certificate cannot be issued. That’s why we need to make sure that the required documents are all available and comply with the requirements. Therefore, before starting Japan Type Approval process, document availability also becomes our focus besides the sample. Because if we missed on this, there will be potential issue during the process. So, if you have any case for Japan and want to have preliminary discussion about the requirements, feel free to drop us an email.
