There are various licensing and regulatory requirements - different in each of the governmental jurisdictions - that are included in the footprint. Each VNO must obtain proper licensing and certification to sell the VSAT Systems service. In most countries, satellite landing rights have already been obtained by the satellite owners so the VNO only needs minimal licensing. It is the responsibility of the VNO to determine which regulations are applicable and fulfill them. VNOs will be required to produce all documents of authorization and a letter from the appropriate government authority in their country of operation, stating that the VNO is fully authorized to provide the service before engaging in operations. If there are any licensing or regulatory costs or fees payable on behalf of either party, these costs shall be borne exclusively by the VNO.
The VNO will be required to certify to VSAT Systems that all VNO end user installations comply with FCC Regulations. The VNO will supply all supporting documentation requested by VSAT Systems. All FCC issues should be addressed to the VSAT Systems Compliance Officer. Call 800-268-8653 for more information.
