Streaming devices and Resolution 737
Streaming devices have become a fast-growing category in Chile, driven by massive adoption of services like Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube. Products like Google's Chromecast, Amazon's Fire TV Stick, Apple TV, Roku devices, and IPTV operator set-top boxes incorporate WiFi as their primary technology and Bluetooth for remote control and audio. Since February 2026, Resolution 737 requires a SUBTEL QR on the packaging of every streaming device sold in Chile. These devices operate entirely on short-range bands regulated by Resolution 1985, with no exception for any of their radio modules. The compliance page must detail the WiFi module (with its bands: 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and if applicable 6 GHz) and the Bluetooth module, along with importer information and test report reference.
Set-top boxes and dongles: practical considerations
The streaming device market includes very diverse formats, from ultra-compact dongles like the Chromecast (which connects directly to the TV's HDMI) to larger set-top boxes like the Apple TV 4K or generic Android TV boxes imported from China. All are subject to the same regulations regardless of format, price, or brand. An important point for importers is that IPTV or cable TV operator set-top boxes that use WiFi to connect to the home network also require compliance. Generic unbranded devices imported present an additional challenge, as their technical specifications may be less clear, but the compliance obligation is the same. Certificación Telecom helps importers manage compliance for mixed catalogs that include both premium brands and generic devices.
