Introduction

Uttarakhand is fast adopting digital and wireless technology in all sectors of industry. Be it RFID recognition systems, wireless monitoring systems used in pharmaceutical branches, and Bluetooth-enabled modules implemented in automotive assemblies, WPC approval is crucial. Unless permitted by ETA, manufacturers and importers are not able to introduce such wireless-enabled products in India. Through the experience of Brand Liaison, firms in Uttarakhand will enjoy 100 percent end-to-end assistance in acquiring WPC approvals, adhering to DoT, and have an opportunity to enter the market without long delays.

What is WPC ETA Approval?

WPC ETA (Equipment Type Approval) is a compulsory certification for the product listed in the Applicable Product Checklist to sell in India. Any product like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth headsets, routers, smart watches, IoT devices, RFID equipment, drones, and other items that make use of wireless technology mandates WPC ETA approval in order to legally enter the Indian market.
It is issued by the Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC) Wing of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), Government of India. All wireless and radio-frequency-based products whose operation exploits the de-licensed frequency bands (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RFID, and Zigbee) must be approved under this system.

Who should apply for a WPC License?

Manufacturers (Indian and Foreign) who are selling certain WPC-notified products into India must apply for a WPC ETA Approval. This is important to comply with Indian laws and gain smooth market access.

Importers and traders cannot apply directly for a WPC ETA Approval, as the ETA license is granted only to the actual manufacturer. Importers are advised to request a copy of the WPC ETA certificate from the actual manufacturers to sell the products in India.
