What you receive

Not just a yes or no

A route-by-route answer. Separate product certificates, dossier evidence, import documents, and facility licences stay separate.

Maintained country rule

What this HG 740/2016 radio equipment market access check is screening

Checks Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, NFC, RFID, UWB, telemetry, and proprietary radio approval. Applies when the product, feature, component, or use is in scope.

Requirement family: Radio and spectrum approval
Regulatory object: radio equipment
Maintained rule status: mandatory if feature
Useful product facts: Radio technologies, bands, power, antenna, module model, approval IDs, and host integration changes.

Article 6(1) of Hotărârea Guvernului 740 of 5 October 2016 permits making available on the market, putting into service and using only radio equipment that, when correctly installed, maintained and used as intended, meets the requirements of the decree — so compliance with the RED route is the sole condition and there is no Romanian type approval. The only registration duty in the decree is the article 5 Union-level registration for low-compliance categories under RED article 5. Article 23(4) puts market surveillance with ANCOM and ANPC.

How to read the answer

Classification is only the first layer

A device may have one medical risk class and still trigger separate radio, electrical, measurement, radiation, environmental, import, or installation requirements. The checker keeps each regulatory object separate.

Product approval

A certificate or approval attached to the finished product, component, or radio host.

Dossier or import evidence

Testing can belong inside the medical dossier, while some documents apply to each shipment.

Site or operator licence

Radiation, installation, use, or measurement controls may apply to a facility or operator.

Electrical safety

MDR electrical safety in place of the Low Voltage Directive

Evidence is normally handled inside the medical-device registration route.

EMC

MDR electromagnetic compatibility in place of the EMC Directive

Evidence is normally handled inside the medical-device registration route.

Electrical safety

ANMDMR in-use verification tests

Applies to the facility, operator, or installation rather than only the product.

Environmental / battery

HG 322/2013 restricting hazardous substances in electrical equipment

Evidence may be required, but the matrix does not identify a generic separate certificate.

Environmental / battery

OUG 5/2015 national WEEE producer register as a condition of placing on the market

Maintained as a mandatory pre-market route.

Environmental / battery

HG 1.132/2008 battery producer register, not yet adapted to Regulation (EU) 2023/1542

Applies when the product, feature, component, or use is in scope.

About this checker

A preliminary tool, not a regulatory determination

Describe the complete product — radio, power, measurement, radiation, battery, materials, accessories, intended use, import route, and existing approvals. The free checker maps those facts to the maintained Romania scheme matrix and links each route to its official source.

Use the result to identify questions and official sources. Final scope can depend on exact models, modules, bands, components, claims, HS codes, import structure, installation site, and current authority interpretation.

Is this the same as medical device classification in Romania?: No. Risk classification determines the main medical-device pathway. This checker runs after classification and looks for additional product certificates, dossier evidence, import documents, and facility or operator licences.
Does “no separate certificate” mean no testing is required?: No. Safety, EMC, performance, or other evidence can still be required inside the medical-device dossier even when there is no separate national product certificate.
Is the result an official regulatory determination?: No. It is a preliminary applicability assessment. Review the linked official source and confirm the final route with the relevant authority, certification body, importer, or regulatory professional.
