An important agreement just signed by the Australian Communications Authority and the New Zealand communications regulator will allow electrical and electronic equipment to be traded freely between Australia and New Zealand.

The ACA and the Radio Spectrum Management Group of the New Zealand Ministry of Economic Development have signed a Memorandum of Understanding setting out agreed principles to sustain the Trans-Tasman Mutual Recognition Agreement on electromagnetic compatibility regulation.

The harmonised electromagnetic compatibility arrangement puts in place a common set of electromagnetic compatibility standards, similar product conformity assessment, product labelling, public information material and administrative arrangements.
