The Network Access License (NAL)
Approval is a mandatory for the telecom equipment covered by
the NAL product categories announced by China's Ministry of
Information Industry (MII).
On June 25, 2001, the first product category
of NAL Approval was announced. It regulates 28 types of telecom
products that are divided into two main groups – regular equipment
and high-end equipment. All regulated telecom products must
obtain the NAL Approval before entering the China market.
UL's primary operation for NAL
Approval agency service is located in Beijing, where the NAL
Certification Center and Key Test Labs are located. In addition,
in Shanghai and Guangzhou, UL has local certification experts
who can handle all communication and correspondence on your
behalf.
UL can provide bundled service
for both CCC Certificate and NAL Approval. Some telecom equipment
fall under not only the scope of NAL Approval but also the scope
of CCC Certification. These kinds of telecom equipment must
obtain both NAL license and CCC certificate before sale in China.
The entire application process is much more complicated than
going for NAL license or CCC certificate alone.
UL has developed well-established
relationship with the NAL Approval Center and test labs, thus
facilitating the certification process and shortening the turnaround
time significantly.
UL can provide translation service
to help the customer prepare the required documentation.
