With the development of trade, buyers and consumers have continuously improved the safety and quality requirements of products. The Malaysian government stipulates that if products are shipped to Malaysia on a regular basis, suppliers need to apply for product certification. In 1998, Malaysia promulgated a new "Communications and Multimedia Act 1998" (Communications and Multimedia Act 1998), which made detailed regulations on Malaysia's telecommunications services and communications market access conditions.

At the same time, a new telecommunications regulatory agency-Malaysia Communications and Multimedia Commission (CMC) was born.

According to the "Communications and Multimedia Law", the placing of communication equipment on the market requires an application to CMC or a certification body designated by CMC to conduct type certification and obtain equipment certification and certification marks.

Communication Equipment Testing Section (CETS) under the jurisdiction of SIRIM is responsible for specific certification matters for communication equipment type certification.

SIRIM is the only certification management agency in Malaysia. Electronic products entering Malaysia need to apply for SIRIM certification. In principle, the applicant should be a local institution in Malaysia. SIRIM certification application and management are specifically responsible for SIRIM QAS International, and the organization issues SIRIM certificates.
