Radio broadcast licence

Every publisher of radio programming must obtain a radio broadcasting license before they begin to broadcast their radio programme, regardless of the platform of dissemination. The procedure for obtaining a license is detailed in Articles 105 and 106 of the Media Act and the General act on the license for providing radio or television activities.

The procedure for obtaining a radio broadcasting license

The Agency issues a license based on the publisher's application, after receiving an opinion of the Broadcasting Council.

The preconditions for obtaining a license are:

• registered radio activity and
• a decision from the Ministry of Culture on the entry of the radio station into the Media Register.

 The application for obtaining a license should include:

• the data on the publisher of radio programming (the name of the applicant, their seat or home address, the legal representative or authorised person, company register number),
• the name of the activity (i.e. radio activity),
• the name of the radio programming that the publisher plans to broadcast and
• the filled-out form on basic programming requirements to which the publisher must adhere in their broadcasts.
