Mozambique's INCM promotes regulatory framework for low-power equipment

The Mozambican Low-Power Equipment Standard Proposal, developed by the Ministry of Communications and Digital Transformation together with the Communications Regulatory Authority (INCM), aims to establish a legal and technical framework for the use of low-power, short-range equipment in the country.

Its basis is Telecommunications Law No. 4/2016, which gives the regulator the responsibility of ensuring technical and legal compliance, protecting consumer rights, and promoting fair and balanced competition practices.

The standard arises from the need to organize the use of this equipment, also known as restricted radiation equipment, which generally does not require licensing or fees due to its low impact.

WHOM DOES IT IMPACT?

The direct impact is on equipment manufacturers and importers, operators and service providers, and end users.

CONCLUSION:

The regulation represents a key instrument for modernizing spectrum management in Mozambique, aligning the country with international standards, ensuring a fair competitive environment, and reducing interference risks, which favors the reliable and sustainable expansion of wireless communications.
