Which certifications are mandatory to sell an IoT device in Australia and New Zealand?
RCM (Australian and New Zealand RCM). Each record lists the issuing body, what it covers and what it does not cover.

Where can I read the official requirement?

Does a certificate for a module cover the finished product?
