BAR Equipment Certification Process

Step 4: What Happens Next?

After your submittal packet is received by BAR, the information you provided will be reviewed. If your submittal package is accepted, BAR will contact you within 60 days to schedule testing. Because testing priorities vary, the testing process may be completed in several weeks, or it may take several months. If there are any problems or deficiencies, BAR may require re-testing, which could result in additional fees.

WARNING! Your equipment or products can not be sold or used in California to perform Smog Check until Bar issues a formal approval after all testing is completed.
