Other devices with wireless components such as e-readers, headphones and digital cameras are also included in the requirement. To this end, the federal government approved the revision of the Ordinance on Telecommunications Equipment (FAV), as announced by the Federal Office of Communications (OFCOM) on Wednesday.

+ Why do the Swiss pay so much for mobile data?

Manufacturers must inform consumers about the charging properties of the device and whether a charger is included. Manufacturers are also obliged to offer devices without a charger in their product ranges.

According to the press release, further adjustments were made to the regulations for radio equipment to ensure public safety, as well as the charging regulations in the satellite sector and for local private networks.
