WPC License type to use Walkie-Talkie for Business Operations
3 months ago
We are an Edtech startup and we want to use "Walkie-Talkie" to communicate with ground personnels during events, exhibitions, between buildings etc.
I was able to find a few details in Saralsanchar website and about WPC but I am not able to find any relevant information on the type of license required and the procedures for the same.
We do not intent to deal/sell any such equipments but only use it for internal operations. Kindly advice the steps to proceed. Thanks
A.Dear Client,
To use walkie-talkies for internal operations in your Edtech startup without selling or dealing with the equipment, you would typically require a license for the use of wireless communication devices. In India, the Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC) Wing, under the Ministry of Communications, issues licenses for such communication devices. You may need to apply for a Wireless Operational License for your walkie-talkies.
To proceed, you should follow these steps:
1.Visit the WPC Wing Website: Refer to the official WPC website to gather information about the specific type of license required and the application process. Ensure that you are complying with the latest regulations.
2.License Type: Identify the appropriate category of license for your use case. In your situation, it may be an "Apparatus License" for using walkie-talkies for internal communication.
3.Documentation: Prepare all necessary documents required for the license application. This may include details about your organization, the purpose of using walkie-talkies, the number of devices, and any other relevant information.
4.Application Submission:Submit the application to the WPC Wing as per their guidelines. This can often be done online. Pay the requisite fees associated with the license application.
5.Wait for Approval:Once the application is submitted, you will need to wait for the WPC Wing to process and approve your license. This period may vary, so it's essential to plan accordingly.
6.Compliance:After obtaining the license, ensure that you adhere to the terms and conditions specified. Non-compliance can lead to penalties and may affect your ability to use walkie-talkies for internal operations.
Remember to consult with a legal professional or an expert in telecommunications regulations to ensure accurate and up-to-date information for your specific situation. This will help you navigate the process smoothly and ensure compliance with the relevant regulations.
Thankyou
