Garmin CIRQA smart ring regulatory filings emerge

Published 8 September 2026

Garmin appears to be nearing a launch into the competitive smart ring market, with a trail of regulatory filings in multiple countries suggesting the development of a new wearable device. Recent certifications in Brazil and China, following an earlier appearance in Indonesia, indicate the company is progressing towards introducing a product that could rival established players like Oura and Samsung. The most recent evidence emerged from Brazil's National Telecommunications Agency, which listed ten distinct product variants under a single certification filed by Garmin. While the product is not explicitly named in this filing, the significant number of variations strongly suggests it is a smart ring, as such devices typically require multiple sizes to accommodate different finger measurements. This aligns with the practice of other smart ring manufacturers, which offer numerous sizes to ensure a proper fit. Further bolstering the speculation, one of the model numbers identified in the Brazilian filing, AA5124, previously appeared in an Indonesian equipment database on August 12. In that earlier listing, the product was explicitly identified as the CIRQA Smart Ring.
