Frequency License 
All users of radio transmitters subject to a licence must hold a licence granted by Estonian Technical Regulatory Authority. The Estonian Technical Regulatory Authority specifies the frequencies that may be used in the radio licence. 
For obtaining a frequency license the user should fill the application form. The application must include radio technical parameters and also the locations and dates of the usage. The application form for short term use is attached to this procedure. 
Filled applications should be sent to email address: event@tja.ee  no later than 15.11.2018. The allocation is based on "First come, first served" principle.
Licence fee, payment and validity 
The frequency fee of a licence bases on the number of equipment and frequencies used. Estonian Technical Regulatory Authority sends to the applicant the frequency fee notice. The license is granted after the payment has received on Estonian Ministry of Finance bank account.
