Singapore's IDA announces simplifications to Equipment Registration scheme - July 2005 ...

Sinapore's telecommunications regulator, IDA, announced that  simple single-line equipment such as telephones, fax machines and dial-up modems need no longer be registered with IDA before being sold for local use in Singapore. Such equipment need no longer have IDA's "Complies with IDA Standards" compliance labels affixed to it. However, as an option, suppliers who wish to continue affixing the IDA compliance label to indicate that the equipment conforms to IDA's standards pertaining to network compatibility, users' safety and non-interference with radio-communications can register their single-line equipment with IDA.

More complex multi-line telecommunication devices and high-powered radio communication devices such as PABX and Wireless Broadband Access equipment must still be registered with IDA. This equipment must carry IDA's compliance labels as proof that the equipment conforms to IDA's standards.

Suppliers of IDA-registered equipment are now given the added flexibility of affixing the labels either on the equipment itself, its packaging or in the accompanying manual.

IDA also announced reductions in application fees and processing times.
