They Communications Services Regulatory Unit (URSEC) of Uruguay published Resolution No. 275/021, which enables local consumers to directly import certain devices operating in the 2.4 GHz and/or the 5725-5850 MHz frequency bands within the family of 802.11 (Wi-Fi) and 802.15 (Bluetooth) standards to enter Uruguay through courier services without prior intervention of URSEC.
This Resolution was issued to facilitate purchases of Uruguayan consumers and to improve URSEC’s response time to homologation applications. National and foreign manufacturers are not impacted, and they must still complete the same homologation process that was in place prior to the Resolution.
