Licensing conditions

Radio spectrum rights of use for the purposes above are granted on a non-interference and non-protection basis to existing systems/radio spectrum uses, if any. Holders are solely responsible for complying with the conditions of the granted rights. The rights are granted provided that there is availability of spectrum and that any technical and other conditions, provided for by relevant legislation (available in greek), are fulfilled.

The use of these rights for the provision of electronic communications services to the public or for private needs is prohibited.

In order EETT to verify that an application falls under the above purposes, it may request relevant certificates and other statements as well as anything else it deems necessary to document the feasibility and the duration of the application.
