Summary of the ACMA Compliance System

The regulatory process for suppliers is defined in the ACMA’s various Labelling Notices for Telecommunications, EMC, RF and EMR. In simple terms, Australian Suppliers are required to be registered with the Australian Communications and Media Authority as a supplier of Electrical and Electronic Products and obtain an Australian ACMA Suppliers Number. Only Australian companies or individuals can register with the ACMA as a distributor.

Australian suppliers label their product with the appropriate Australian compliance logo of the Atick or Ctick and with an appropriate ACMA Suppliers Number.
