The Information and Communication Technologies Authority (ICTA) has issued The Telecommunication Directive 2 of 2017 on 1 Dec 2017. This new directive amends the earlier dispositions taken by the Provision 3.12 of the Telecommunication Directive 1 of 2014 .

Indeed, the new directive aims to better regulate the import and sale of radio / telecommunications equipment by facilitating access to the Mauritian market. Particularly in point 5.9, which deals with the import and marketing of electronic devices with only the built-in BT function.

For electronic devices with only the built-in BT function, they will no longer be subject to approval in Mauritius. (See picture below)

As a result, any importer or manufacturer will simply have to satisfy the requirements of the label and the conformity to the standards applicable to his device as established in Mauritius
