Overview

TRC regulation at a glance

The Telecommunications Regulator of Cambodia (TRC) oversees the conformity assessment for all products utilizing radio frequencies within the country. The TRC facilitates a highly efficient market entry process by accepting international test reports based on either CE (European) or FCC (US) standards.

A notable advantage of the Cambodian regulatory landscape is the indefinite validity of the TRC Type Approval certificates. However, manufacturers must also be aware of parallel safety regulations, as many electronic products concurrently require ISC (Institute of Standards of Cambodia) Registration.
