Recently, Russia’s State Committee on Radiofrequencies (GKRCH) published new guidelines for RFC (Radio Frequency Centre) conclusions. RFC conclusions are required for obtaining import licenses for radio devices such as RFID (866-868MHz) SRDs, automotive radars (76-77GHz), DECT devices (1880-1900MHz) and more.

In the past, GKRCH reports issued by an accredited lab were accepted, and obtaining the RFC conclusion was a paperwork process only. The new guidelines imply that only test reports issued by Russia’s RFC will be accepted, and in-country testing is therefore required.
