Type Approval Certification: Scope and Application

What type approval certification covers

A type approval certificate confirms that a product meets the technical standards, regulations, or requirements defined for its category. The certificate is typically a precondition for bringing the product to market or putting it into service, and it supports both the safety case and the compliance record.

How type approval is obtained

The process runs through three stages, coordinated by Sistem Patent Kalite:

• Application: the file is prepared and submitted through Sistem Patent Kalite. We review the product dossier and confirm which regulatory framework applies.
• Product evaluation: the product is assessed against the applicable standards or regulations, and any required laboratory testing is arranged.
• Certification and approval: once the criteria are met, the type approval certificate is issued and the product is cleared for market placement or service entry.

Which products need type approval

Type approval applies across several product categories. The certificate is typically required for electrical and electronic equipment, automotive products, construction materials, and other industrial goods subject to regulated safety or performance standards. Our consultants review your product and confirm both whether type approval is required and which specific standards apply.

Type approval fees

Cost depends on product type, technical complexity, and the testing profile required under the applicable regulation. Contact Sistem Patent Kalite with your product details for a written quote.
