Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article, a natural person or organization which
possesses or operates terminal equipment which can only be used for receiving radio
messages does not require a license.
Article 34
All radiocommunications licenses are valid for a period of years commensurate with the term
of any accompanying telecommunications license provided that the fees specified are paid by
the telecommunications operator. If the telecommunications license is renewed, the
radiocommunications license may also be renewed for further periods on the same or different
conditions.
Paragraph (1) of this Article must be subject to any other provisions of this law relating to
radiocommunications licenses.
On proposal by the Regulatory Board the Ministerial decree determines, the fees for
radiocommunications licenses. Fees may be initial application fees and annual fees.
Failure to pay any fees within the specified time may result in the withdrawal of the
radiocommunications license and reallocation of the relevant frequency.
The Regulatory Board has the right to change the terms and conditions attached to any license
and specific contract. The change of general terms is applied to all licenses.
Licenses may be surrendered to the Regulatory Board at any time and are surrendered at the
expiry of the period set out in paragraph (1) of this Article. Failure to surrender a license is
punishable in accordance with the provisions set out in paragraph (4) of Article 62 of this law.
Article 35
If the Regulatory Board believes that any radiocommunications terminal equipment is causing
or may cause interference with radiocommunications, the Regulatory Board issues a
prohibition notice to any natural person or organization which is using or selling the radio
communications terminal equipment.
The notice prohibits further use or sale of the relevant radiocommunications terminal
equipment from the date it specified and suspends any radiocommunications license which
have been granted in respect of the use of the equipment.
Any natural person or organization that continues to use or sell the radiocommunications
terminal equipment after the date set out in the prohibition notice is liable to a daily fine as set
out in paragraph 5 of Article 62 of this law.
As an alternative to issuing a prohibition notice, the Regulatory Board may:
1° modify any license granted in respect of the relevant terminal equipment to limit the way,
the times and the circumstances in which the equipment continues to be used;
2° allow the license holder to modify the terminal equipment such that it ceases to cause
interference provided it is not used until the modifications are made.
