Hi Amund, Notifications are free in the EU. Switzerland is not member of the EU , and in the guys there do not know exactly -or don not want to comply- with the rest of Europe. Both for the notification procedure, AND the associated fees, but also for the full implications of the R&TTE directive. In switzerland the principal of manufacturers responsability is not fully accepted. The bakom still insists in verification before allowing the equipment to be used. Other EC countries accept any notification (esp. if supported by NB declarations) if not contradictory to the national frequencies table, and verify afterwards steered by complaints. Not switzerland. Try to contact Mr. Zulauf and ask him why one should pay for them to note (listen); as that is the basic function of a notification procedure. Other EC countries -fa the netherlands- will never comment on any notification; some will reply by sending a confirmation of receiption.

We did also include Switzerland, because the radios system shall be put into the Swiss marked and in addition we have also thought that Switzerland accept the RTTE directive. Anyway, we have now received an invoice (CHF 200,-) from the Swiss authorities for handling the EU notification. Is that correct ? Isn't this EU notification service for free?
