Smartwatches and SUBTEL certification in Chile

Smartwatches and intelligent watches have established themselves as a high-growth device category in Chile, led by Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy Watch, and Garmin. These devices incorporate multiple short-range wireless technologies: Bluetooth as the primary connection to the smartphone, WiFi for independent connectivity, NFC for contactless payments, and in premium models like the Apple Watch Ultra, also UWB for precise location. Since February 2026, Resolution 737 requires a SUBTEL QR on the packaging of every smartwatch sold in Chile. Simpler smartbands and fitness trackers, like the Xiaomi Mi Band, that only use Bluetooth are also subject to this requirement. The compliance page must detail each short-range wireless module present in the device.

GPS, cellular, and WiFi variants in smartwatches

Smartwatch manufacturers typically offer two or more variants of the same model: a base version (Bluetooth/GPS) and a cellular version (Bluetooth/GPS + LTE). For Resolution 737 purposes, both variants require compliance QR codes, but they will likely need separate pages because the cellular version incorporates additional radio modules. While cellular connectivity is exempt as licensed spectrum, the presence of an LTE module may imply different WiFi/Bluetooth radio hardware, justifying a separate declaration. Importers must verify regulatory model numbers for each variant. Additionally, some high-end smartwatches incorporate emergency satellite communication, which operates on different bands and may have its own regulatory considerations.

Frequently asked questions about Smartwatch

Does my imported smartwatch need a SUBTEL QR?: Yes. Every smartwatch, intelligent watch, or smartband sold in Chile that uses Bluetooth, WiFi, NFC, or another short-range technology must include a SUBTEL QR on its packaging since February 2026.
Do an Apple Watch GPS and an Apple Watch cellular need different QRs?: Generally yes. Although cellular connectivity is exempt, the GPS and cellular variants typically have different regulatory model numbers and may use different WiFi/Bluetooth radio hardware. Each variant requires its own compliance page.
Does a budget smartband like the Xiaomi Mi Band need a QR?: Yes. Even the simplest fitness trackers use Bluetooth to communicate with the smartphone, classifying them as short-range devices under Resolution 1985 and subjecting them to the Resolution 737 QR requirement.
Where does the SUBTEL QR go on a smartwatch?: The QR must be on the smartwatch's retail packaging. Given the typically small box for these devices, it can be printed directly on the box, on a sticker, or in documentation included inside the packaging.
