TRA issues frequency licences to users of telecommunications frequencies. However, there are some users who violate the Telecommunications Law by transmitting radio signals without a frequency licence or use the radio spectrum outside the terms of the frequency licence issued by TRA.
Mr. Mohammed Mahmood, Director of Technical Operations at TRA stated:
"TRA has embarked on a campaign to locate these illegal users and to stop their radio transmissions, as illegal use of the radio spectrum causes interference to licensed users and degrades the quality of services provided by licensed telecommunications service providers operating in Bahrain."
According to Section 73 paragraph (g) of the Telecommunications Law, any person operating radiocommunications equipment without a frequency licence is punishable by a fine of up to BD500,000 and the confiscation of all equipment and tools used in committing the offence.
TRA advises all users of telecommunications spectrum to check that they have an up to date Licence. Failure to have a valid licence may result in confiscation of equipment and a fine being imposed.
