Cape Verde's Multisectoral Regulatory Agency for the Economy (ARME) has launched a public consultation on a proposed regulatory framework for satellite communication networks and services. The consultation is open until 31 August 2026, according to an official announcement.
The draft framework aims to establish rules for satellite communications, covering licensing, spectrum use, and service quality. It is part of efforts to modernize the country's telecommunications sector and expand connectivity, particularly to remote islands.
Stakeholders, including operators, industry experts, and the public, are invited to submit comments. The consultation reflects Cape Verde's commitment to fostering a competitive and innovative communications market.
ARME has not yet specified when the final regulations will be adopted or implemented. The agency encourages all interested parties to participate in shaping the future of satellite services in the country.
