for the installation and use of radio transmitting devices as required by section 12 (2) of the Telecommunications and Radio communications Regulation Act No. 30 of 2009 (Act).

A radio licence is required for every radio transmitting equipment and radio frequency emitting device except for certain categories of Telecommunications equipment and radio communications transmitting devices which fall under the General User Radio Licences (GURL).

(i) under and in accordance with a licence or exception; or

(ii) when such radio communications device is registered for use by a foreign registered ship or aircraft for the appropriate class of operation in the country of registration of the ship or aircraft.
