Husqvarna First to Win FCC Approval for Foreign-Made Robotic Mowers
Stockholm – September 16, 2026 -- Husqvarna Group has become the first robotics company to secure Conditional Approval from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for foreign-manufactured advanced robotic devices, clearing a key regulatory hurdle for its U.S. expansion.
FCC exempts four Husqvarna mower platforms from national security covered list
The FCC's Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau announced the approval on September 9, 2026, covering four Automower platforms: the 305V iQ, 310V iQ, 420V iQ and 440V iQ. The decision follows the FCC's August 2026 publication of a covered list identifying communications equipment deemed a national security risk; the Conditional Approval exempts these specific Husqvarna platforms, along with models already sold in the U.S., from that list.
