Product delivery and launch schedule are the top priority for enterprises applying for Bahrain DAB certification. The overall cycle depends on product conditions and document coordination efficiency, divided into three stages: sample testing, application submission and official review. This article analyzes the time cycle of each link in detail.
·Technical Testing Phase: Entrust TRA/GSO recognized laboratories to complete RF and EMC testing per BH GSO 2693:2023 requirements and issue formal test reports. Cycle affected by product complexity and laboratory scheduling.
·Type Approval Application Phase: Submit documents via Bahrain TRA eTRA online system with test reports; TRA reviews and issues official market access certificates as the legal entry threshold.
2. Laboratory Testing Cycle
Testing follows ETSI EN 303 186 (RF) and CISPR (EMC) standards:
·Simple pure DAB portable radios: 2-3 weeks for full RF+EMC testing with one-time pass.
·Multi-functional devices (FM/BT/Wi-Fi integrated): Longer cycle with increased test items.
·EMC rectification risk: Highest rework rate link; reserve additional 2-3 weeks for debugging and retesting.
·Laboratory scheduling: High-qualified labs often have 1-2 weeks queuing time affecting actual start time.
Overall testing cycle: 2-4 weeks for simple products; 5-8 weeks for complex devices or EMC rectification required.
3. TRA Application Submission Cycle
Complete document preparation and eTRA platform registration take 1-2 weeks with fully prepared files and no supplementary materials required.TRA official review takes 2-4 weeks for complete application documents.
4. NOC Clearance Document
After TRA certificate issuance, NOC (No Objection Certificate) is mandatory for import customs clearance, processed synchronously with type approval with no extra cycle delay.
5. Full Process Overall Cycle
·Smooth application (one-time EMC pass, no supplementary documents): Total 2-3 months including testing, document preparation and TRA review.
·Complex scenario (EMC rectification, document re-submission): Total 4-6 months with extended testing and review cycle.Enterprises without Bahrain registered entities need extra time for local customs clearance entity arrangement.
