Global Market Access with Kiwa

• Expanding beyond EU and US into multiple non‑EU markets 

• Leveraging modular approvals and understanding where they are and aren’t accepted 

• Approving product families without “certificate multiplication” and avoidable costs

• Full application management: documentation, submissions and authority engagement 

• Coordination of local testing where required, via global partners 

• International type approvals for wireless, telecom, ITE and electrical products 

• Other types of certification in the global market including but not limited to RoHS, Safety, EMC, Energy Efficiency and IPv6 

• Regulatory research and intelligence harvesting 

• Proactive insights on evolving requirements to reduce late-stage surprises 

• Certificate renewals and lifecycle management to keep products compliant over time 

• Ongoing management aligned to regulation and product changes 

• Regulatory compliance advisory support to help teams make confident decisions early 

• Support for labelling and markings readiness and documentation strategy to avoid redesigns 

Not usually. Many countries have national requirements beyond EU or US approvals - including local documentation, labelling/marking rules and, in some cases, local testing. Global is not one standard; global is a managed programme. 

We support Global Market Access for wireless, telecom and ITE products, and domestic and commercial electrical and electronic products. 

Yes. We coordinate local testing where required through global partnerships with laboratories and certification bodies, while managing the overall approval programme. 

Modular approval can help, but there are limitations and additional requirements in some markets, and it may not be accepted in all countries. We help you understand what applies to the host product across target markets. 

Variant handling differs by market. The risk is “certificate multiplication” - where small changes trigger separate approvals, extra documentation control and delays. We help define a global model strategy early, aligned to target markets and documentation requirements. 

Yes. Compliance is continuous - regulations update, standards evolve and certificates require maintenance. We support certification management and lifecycle maintenance to keep approvals current. 

We provide regular project visibility updates (and can support tracking through structured reporting and tools depending on programme requirements).
