RRA Proposes Clarifications to SDoC Procedures and Identification Code Rules


On July 23, 2025, South Korea’s National Radio Research Agency (RRA) issued a draft amendment to the “Notification on Conformity Assessment of Broadcasting and Communication Equipment.” The proposed changes aim to address operational challenges arising from the introduction of the Supplier’s Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) system and the reorganization of equipment classifications. The amendment also reflects efforts to improve regulatory clarity by simplifying terminology and refining ambiguous provisions.


Key updates include establishing a legal basis for identification code applications, clarifying procedures for composite equipment that combines certified devices, and correcting labeling requirements. The draft also proposes updates to EMC-related definitions, reclassification of certain equipment types, clearer exclusion criteria for industrial-use devices, and revised classifications for headend and in-building communication systems.


Stakeholders are invited to submit comments to the RRA by August 13, 2025. The revised notification will take effect upon promulgation.
