Brazil's Anatel certification is aimed at the certification of telecom products. All telecom products and accessories must obtain Anatel certification before they can be legally commercialized and used in Brazil.
Anatel certification is divided into compulsory and voluntary certification. The approval procedure is the same for Brazilian domestic and foreign products.
