On September 8, 2026, the Federal Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (CRT) published a comprehensive agreement establishing administrative simplification actions for procedures related to the Public Telecommunications Registry.

The regulation eliminates physical requirements, updates procedure codes, merges several processes, and converts many procedures into electronic notices, significantly reducing regulatory burdens and processing times for stakeholders.

The exclusive use of the Electronic Window (Ventanilla Electrónica) is mandated for the submission of all relevant procedures and notices, ensuring immediate issuance of electronic receipts and timely availability of registration certificates.

Key requirements such as payment receipts and written requests are removed, and procedures for registration, cancellation, and consultation of private sites and infrastructure are streamlined. The regulation introduces QR codes as a technological validation mechanism for registration certificates, enhancing document authenticity, integrity, and traceability.

The CRT retains the authority to verify and cancel registrations in cases of inconsistencies or false information, and will notify affected parties electronically. The use of artificial intelligence in document preparation is permitted, provided authenticity is maintained.

Response times for most procedures are reduced to five business days or are immediate, depending on the type of notice. The CRT will harmonize information across its platforms and update administrative instruments to ensure full implementation.

These measures strengthen institutional efficiency, promote sector competitiveness, and facilitate equitable access to telecommunications and broadcasting services.
