Starting from April 1, 2024, head SAR restrictions will be enforced.
Starting from August 1, 2024, torso SAR restrictions will be enforced.
Mobile and tablet device certificate applications after the effective date must include SAR test reports.
SAR testing must be conducted in a local laboratory. Currently, only SDPPI laboratory BBPPT can support SAR testing.
