Updated RAMATEL System

The RAMATEL registry is reorganized to streamline compliance and reduce administrative complexity. Current registrations remain valid for a transition period before adapting to the new framework.

New Certification Body and Laboratory Registers

The resolution establishes official registers for Certification Bodies and Testing Laboratories. Certification bodies will issue conformity certificates, while laboratories must meet strengthened accreditation requirements. This structure improves efficiency and increases technical reliability in equipment evaluation.

Elimination of Expiration Dates

New registrations will no longer expire, reducing long‑term administrative burdens for manufacturers and importers.

Greater Market Control

Only telecom products registered in RAMATEL may be sold or distributed in Argentina. Online platforms must display the registration number clearly in each product listing.

Product Families for Faster Approvals

Devices sharing similar technical characteristics may now be grouped into Product Families, allowing faster approval and reduced documentation.

Implementation

The updated system becomes fully effective on September 1, 2026, giving companies time to adjust operations and documentation.

A More Efficient Framework

With Resolution 57/2026, Argentina moves toward a more agile, transparent, and modern telecom equipment approval system—benefiting industry actors and end users alike.
