Guyana-type approval is a mandatory certification process for electronic and telecommunications equipment, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, routers, modems, microwave ovens, and digital cameras. The process ensures they meet the country’s technical and safety standards. It is reported that Guyana has implemented a Conformity Assessment Scheme that facilitates the entry of equipment into the local market. The approval requirements in Guyana include technical specifications, safety standards, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements, and foreign companies can self-certify compliance through a Supplier Declaration of Conformity (SDoC). The Telecommunications Agency of Guyana is the authority responsible for approving telecommunications equipment.

It is reported that Guyana does not implement any de minimis threshold, which is the minimum value of goods below which customs do not charge duties.

The Communications and Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 12 of 2023 and the Consumer Affairs Act 2011 (CAA) provide a comprehensive framework for consumer protection that also applies to online transactions. The Communications and Electronic Transactions Act 2023 establishes Guyana's regulatory framework for secure electronic transactions, including the payment, transfer and receipt of money, with the objective of encouraging the development of the necessary legal and business infrastructure for safe electronic commerce. Within this framework, Sec. 44, entitled Consumer Protection, requires e-commerce providers to (i) provide sufficient information for legal processes, (ii) provide consumers with adequate information to make informed decisions and maintain complete records, (iii) provide data necessary for record-keeping such as receipts, and (iv) authorises the Minister to promulgate regulations relating to the sale of e-commerce goods or services through electronic transactions. Similarly, the Consumer Affairs Act 2011 (CAA) serves as a legislative tool to protect consumers' interests in their dealings with producers and suppliers.
