IFT closed for business from 20th July to 31st July
Mexican RF body – Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones (IFT) – will be closed for business from 20th July until 31st July for their annual holiday period. During this period, no Type Approval applications will be able to be submitted to IFT and application reviews will be on hold.
Currently, IFT facilities continue to be closed as a protective measurement to help reduce the COVID-19 pandemic impact in Mexico. While IFT are currently set to re-open their offices on 1st July 2020, they are now operating remotely and are permitting electronic submissions to enable application reviews and Approval issuances.
Due to the annual closure and the backlog caused by the COVID-19 impact, delays to IFT review times can be expected. It is understood that Mexican Certification Body (CB) – Normalización y Certificación Electrónica, S.C (NYCE) – will continue to be operational during this period.
