§ 2.1201   Purpose.

   (a) In order to carry out its responsibilities under the Communications Act
   and the various treaties and international regulations, and in order to
   promote efficient use of the radio spectrum, the Commission has developed
   technical standards for radio frequency equipment. The technical standards
   applicable to individual types of equipment are found in that part of the
   rules governing the service wherein the equipment is to be operated. In
   addition to the technical standards, the rules governing the service may
   require that such equipment receive an equipment authorization from the
   Commission as a prerequisite for marketing and importing this equipment into
   the U.S.A. The marketing rules, § 2.801 et seq., were adopted pursuant to the
   authority in section 302 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (47
   U.S.C. 302).

   (b) The rules in this section set out the conditions under which radio
   frequency devices as defined in § 2.801 that are capable of causing harmful
   interference to radio communications may be imported into the U.S.A.

   (c) Nothing in this section prevents importers from shipping goods into
   foreign trade zones or Customs bonded warehouses, such as is the prescribed
   procedure under § 2.1204(a)(5). Radio frequency devices capable of causing
   harmful interference, however, cannot be withdrawn from these areas except
   in accordance with the provisions of this section.
