EXTENDMAX - November 14, 2025 – Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN issued by the Ministry of Science and Technology marks a significant shift in quality management for Group-2 products in the information technology and telecommunications sector. The new adjustments focus on streamlining testing requirements, removing burdensome procedures for businesses, and clarifying the list of devices subject to mandatory conformity certification and declaration. These changes not only directly impact the importation, manufacturing, and distribution of ICT equipment but also reflect a broader regulatory transition from “pre-check” to “post-check” mechanisms. This article by ExtendMax provides enterprises with a concise overview of the key updates, helping them understand the scope of application and avoid compliance risks when implementing conformity procedures under this Circular.
MOST Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN: Updated List of ICT Products Requiring Type Approval and SDoC
Summary of Key Changes Under Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN
- The requirement for testing under harsh environmental conditions is abolished from July 1, 2025, for several technical regulations, most notably QCVN 55:2023/BTTTT. Products subject to these regulations will only need to undergo testing under normal conditions, applicable to both imported goods and products registered for state quality inspection from July 1, 2025.
- Testing under extreme conditions for QCVN 54:2020/BTTTT and QCVN 65:2021/BTTTT is only required for Wi-Fi modems and Access Points (HS code 85176251). Other products (with different HS codes) may apply QCVN 54:2020/BTTTT and QCVN 65:2021/BTTTT under normal testing conditions during the transitional period from July 1, 2025 to December 15, 2026.
- The requirement to test the 2G / 2.5G section of QCVN 117:2023/BTTTT is removed for land mobile terminal equipment. However, land mobile base stations and repeaters using GSM or EGPRS technologies remain subject to conformity certification for 2G / 2.5G.
- The application of several technical regulations will be suspended entirely until December 15, 2026, especially those applicable to maritime equipment. Products under these regulations will not be required to undergo testing, applicable to both imported goods and products registered for state quality inspection from July 1, 2025.
- Industrial computers under HS code 84714090 are newly added to the list of products subject to mandatory conformity declaration (and conformity certification if they feature radio transmission capabilities).
- State management philosophy shifts from “pre-check” to “post-check” for products related to radio spectrum planning. Under Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN, enterprises are no longer required to submit a “manufacturer’s letter confirming frequency compliance for WiFi 6E and WiFi 7 bands.”
- Additional minor changes are provided in the full text of the Circular at the end of this article.
Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN takes effect and replaces Circular 02/2024/TT-BTTTT from December 31, 2025.

Key Considerations When Applying Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN
- Flycams and UAVs using WLAN/RLAN technology are required to undergo conformity certification only when their 5GHz transmit power ranges between 60 mW and 200 mW. Meanwhile, Circular 08/2021/TT-BTTTT allows the use of the 5725–5850 MHz band with transmit power up to 1000 mW. This raises important questions:
1. Are Flycam and UAV products operating in the 5GHz band with transmit power above 200 mW required to undergo conformity certification?
2. Is this power limit part of a roadmap to tighten transmit-power conditions for 5GHz WLAN/RLAN-based Flycams and UAVs to meet safety, security, and national-defense requirements?
- Industrial computers under HS code 84714090 are newly added to the list of products subject to conformity declaration (and conformity certification if they include radio-transmitting functions). However, the English version of the Circular labels them as “Desktop Computer”, which may imply that only desktop-type industrial computers fall under this requirement. The Circular does not clarify whether non-desktop industrial PCs (e.g., units mounted on manufacturing lines or built into automated systems for data analysis and processing) are also subject to conformity obligations.
- Enterprises are no longer required to submit a manufacturer’s confirmation letter regarding WiFi 6E or WiFi 7 frequency bands. However, manufacturers and importers must exercise caution: if the actual imported product does not meet the spectrum-planning and usage conditions stipulated in Circular 08/2021/TT-BTTTT, the product may be deemed non-compliant and must be returned to the supplier.
- General-purpose radio transmitters operating at 125 kHz and 134.2 kHz fall under Section 2.2 of Annex 1 of Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN — meaning they require conformity certification (and conformity declaration). These devices are also covered by QCVN 55:2023/BTTTT. However, the Telecommunications Quality Measurement Center does not certify these products, citing that Annex 3 of Circular 08/2021/TT-BTTTT — governing license-exempt short-range devices — does not allocate the 125 kHz and 134.2 kHz center frequencies for general-purpose radio use.
- Notably, induction loop devices (a type of short-range radio device, though not explicitly listed in Circular 02/2024/TT-BTTTT) may also operate on the 125 kHz and 134.2 kHz frequencies. This creates potential confusion and regulatory obstacles for enterprises: products listed under Section 2.2 of Annex 1 of Circular 29/2025 may be required to obtain conformity certification, yet may be unable to do so — resulting in compliance deadlock during state quality inspection procedures.
