|---|---|
| Description | These requirements are mandatory and must be fulfilled before the issuance of import permit(s) for the importation of any telecommunication equipment or apparatus, including radio transmitting devices, to be imported into Fiji. |
| Comments | A fee is charged on each equipment assessment that TAF undertakes in response to an application request. This applies to each model assessed and for which a type approval is issued. That fee is $10.00 (VEP) irrespective of the number of individual handsets associated with that model. As such, a fee is charged on the different types of equipment (models) provided for processing. This is outlined on “section 29” of the Telecommunication Act 2008 (License fee schedule), “for a single request to import radio communication". |
