What is the Egyptian NTRA?

For the certification of wired and wireless communication equipment in Egypt, CE and FCC standards are recognized. Only reports from a few laboratories listed in the official directory are acknowledged. The Egyptian NTRA refers to the National Telecom Regulatory Authority, an independent administrative body responsible for regulating the telecommunications industry in Egypt. Established in 2003 under the Telecommunication Regulation Law No. 10, NTRA's main responsibilities include formulating telecom policies, issuing licenses, supervising the quality of telecom services, ensuring fair competition, and protecting consumer rights. NTRA is also responsible for managing and allocating radio spectrum, approving the import and use of telecom equipment, and ensuring that equipment and services comply with national technical standards and regulations. For telecommunications and wireless equipment imported and sold in the Egyptian market, NTRA has mandated registration and certification procedures to ensure that these devices do not interfere with the national communication network and guarantee user safety.
