SIRIM Certification! Unlocking Market Access in Malaysia Through Type Approval.
Malaysia stands as one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing economies and ranks as the 34th-largest economy in the world. With such robust economic growth, Malaysia presents an exciting and lucrative market for ICT product manufacturers. To ensure only top-quality telecom and wireless products enter the Malaysian market, the government enforces a strict compliance framework, with SIRIM serving as the regulatory authority.
SIRIM “the Standards and Industrial Research Institute of Malaysia” operates under the Ministry of Trade and Industry and plays a pivotal role in setting product standards and advancing technology. For manufacturers, obtaining a SIRIM certification is a clear demonstration of compliance with Malaysia’s stringent quality and safety standards, ensuring products meet the country’s high expectations.
With a wealth of experience, deep expertise, and a strong network of global connections in the certification industry, I am fully equipped to guide you through the complexities of the SIRIM certification process. I’ll help eliminate any obstacles along the way, ensuring you achieve your certification on time and with confidence.
With our extensive knowledge of local regulations, we ensure a smooth and efficient path to accessing the Malaysian market.

FAQ Malaysia SIRIM Type Approval
Here are some frequently asked questions and their answers to help you understand the process better.
What are the document requirements to obtain SIRIM certification?
- Completed SIRIM Type Approval Application Form (to be prepared by agency).
- RF and EMC Test reports according to EN or FCC standard
- User Manual and Product Datasheet
- External and Internal Product Photos
- Brand/Trademark Authorization Letter or Registration Certificate
- Letter of Authorization to agency
- Declaration of Conformity (draft to be prepared by agency)
- SIRIM IP Forms (eTAC/FOR/01-8 or 01-9) – for trademark holder authorization
Who should be the applicant for Malaysia’s SIRIM Approval Certification: the manufacturer or the importer?
To apply for a SIRIM certificate, the applicant must be a company registered in Malaysia. This could be the importer, distributor, or the manufacturer’s representative office based in Malaysia. If the manufacturer does not yet have a local partner company, they may use an agency’s company name as the Importer of Record (IOR), although this will incur an additional cost.
Is testing mandatory for SIRIM Certification?
Testing for SIRIM certification is not always mandatory. In many cases, the process can be completed through documentation review, where existing CE, FCC RF, and EMC reports are evaluated. However, if any RF, EMC, or safety parameters are lacking test reports, local testing in Malaysia can be arranged as an alternative.
What are the sample requirements for SIRIM Certification?
For most SRD (Short Range Devices), a sample is generally not required. However, if the product includes cellular functionality, it is mandatory to submit one unit of the product with the IMEI number clearly marked on the label. This sample will be used for a functional test.
How can I obtain a Type Approval certificate through paperwork?
A Type Approval certificate can be obtained through document evaluation if the product already has an RF or EMC test report that complies with international standards, such as CE or FCC, issued by an accredited overseas laboratory.
What is the lead time for Malaysia SIRIM Type Approval and Certification?
The lead time is typically 4 weeks, provided that valid RF and EMC test reports are available.
What is the validity period of a Malaysia SIRIM Certificate?
The SIRIM certificate is valid for 5 years from the date of approval.
