Type approval in French Polynesia

What you need to know to enter the French Polynesia market

Type approval for RF and telecom products in French Polynesia is administered by ANFR (ANFR). Approvals are generally obtained in 4 Wks, and once granted are valid for Unlimited. No local representative is required.

Why type approval is required

Selling RF equipment in French Polynesia without approval is illegal

National standards compliance

Products must meet French Polynesia'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 French Polynesia.
