Executive Summary / Device Scope

  • Cellular Devices: Require GSMA TAC allocation letters and 3GPP spectrum reports.
  • Short Range Devices (SRD): Cover Bluetooth, Wi-Fi 2.4/5GHz, and RFID operating within defined ERP power limits.
  • Certificate Expiry: 3 Years for all registered device categories.

The kingdom of Bahrain enforces high technical standards across wireless communications. Whether deploying connected fleet tracking devices, smart home electronics, or commercial 5G terminals, vendors must submit precise technical parameter dossiers to the TRA.
