Jordan TRC issued a notice on September 17, 2025, announcing amendments to the terms and procedures of telecommunications and terminal equipment approvals. The key change is to extend the validity of type approval certificates from one to two years.

The development of smart cities is contingent on stable and secure wireless connectivity. However, each application scenario presents its own unique regulatory compliance challenges. Devices using technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 4G/5G, and IoT must pass RF, EMC, safety, and cybersecurity regulations to gain legal market access. SGS offers comprehensive wireless regulatory compliance services, assisting manufacturers and system integrators in swiftly addressing global compliance requirements and ensuring the safety and reliability of smart city applications.

The Time-Averaged Specific Absorption Rate (TAS or T-SAR) algorithm is a breakthrough strategy in wireless communication technology that effectively enhances device transmission performance while ensuring compliance with regulations. Instead of merely reducing the peak power to comply with RF exposure regulations, TAS effectively maintains an average SAR value over a specified period of time, without sacrificing too much of the output power.

CCK amended the Type Approval Rules CCK 012014 TA Rules on May 16, 2025, implementing new mandatory requirements for communication equipment exported to Kiribati in accordance with Sections 61 and 62 of the Communications Act of 2012.

PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) are globally recognized as "forever chemicals" of high concern. Their defining characteristic is the extremely stable carbon-fluorine (C–F) bond, which makes them almost non-degradable in the environment. As a result, PFAS persist and accumulate, causing long-term impacts on both the environment and human health. Whether it’s the European Union’s stringent concentration limits or the United States’ mandatory reporting requirements for any detected PFAS, manufacturers are being challenged with the question: “Do you truly understand the composition of your products?”

The purpose of non-terrestrial network(NTN) communication is to achieve the usage scenarios of ubiquitous connectivity for next generation of 6G communication. On the other hand, NTN can be used as a communication backup system once nature disaster or war happened.

Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) released application process guidelines for Scheme-X OTR (One-Time Requirement under Integrated Technical Regulation) on July 11, 2025. The main points are as follows.

As product applications diversify and global standards evolve, SGS has launched the Xindian Open Site, an innovative outdoor testing facility designed to overcome the constraints of traditional semi-anechoic chambers. Tailored for large, liquid-handling, and dynamic products that cannot be tested in enclosed environments, the Open Site offers faster, more flexible testing capabilities that help companies meet international compliance and accelerate their path to global markets.
