China certification for Wireless and IOT devices

SRRC and NAL certification are mandatory for wireless and networking devices sold in China. SRRC approval ensures compliance with spectrum regulations for radio transmission, while the NAL (Network Access License) is required for telecom and IoT equipment that connects to public communication networks. Without these certifications, products cannot legally be marketed or connected in China. At IoT Consulting Partners, we guide manufacturers, integrators, and importers through the entire China certification process — from testing and debugging in accredited laboratories to documentation, filings, and approvals. Our goal is to make compliance smooth, efficient, and reliable, so your product can achieve fast market access in China.

What is SRRC & NAL Certification?

SRRC (State Radio Regulatory Commission) certification is mandatory for all wireless and radio-frequency devices sold in China. It ensures compliance with China’s spectrum management rules and verifies that devices operate within approved frequency bands and power levels.

NAL (Network Access License) is required for telecom and networking equipment that connects to public communication networks in China. Without an NAL, devices such as smartphones, routers, and certain IoT equipment cannot legally be marketed or connected.

Together, SRRC and NAL certifications are essential for market entry and network access in China.

Which Requirements Apply?

Depending on the device type, different approvals may be needed:

  • SRRC Certification – for all radio transmission devices (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, 5G, cellular, RFID, etc.);
  • NAL Certification – for telecom equipment and IoT/network devices connecting to the public network;
  • CCC (China Compulsory Certification) – may also apply for safety, EMC, or consumer electronics;
  • MIIT Type Approvals – additional requirements for certain categories of ICT products.

Each product must be evaluated to determine the exact combination of certifications before entering the Chinese market.
