Type approval in Iraq
What you need to know to enter the Iraq market
Type approval for RF and telecom products in Iraq is administered by CMC (CMC). Approvals are generally obtained in 10 Wks, and once granted are valid for 1 Year. A locally registered representative is mandatory — KTECH provides this as part of our service.
Why type approval is required
Selling RF equipment in Iraq without approval is illegal
National standards compliance
Products must meet Iraq's technical specifications for RF emissions, interference limits, and device safety before they can be imported or placed on the market.
Interference protection
Uncertified devices can disrupt local telecommunications networks, emergency services, and critical infrastructure — type approval ensures your product operates safely alongside existing deployments.
Legal market access
Without type approval, products risk customs seizure, fines, and permanent market bans. Certification is the legal prerequisite for commercial sale, distribution, or importation in Iraq.
