Licence for the Supply of Transmitting Equipment to NZ
RSM has released details of how to apply for a licence to supply Radio Transmitters and obligations for a permitted person to supply unrestricted two-way radios
Amateur radio operators or suppliers that want to supply radios transmitters in NZ must apply for a Licence to Supply Radio Transmitters either as an individual or organisation. Suppliers are defined as – persons in NZ that import, manufacture, distribute, sell or install.
If the supplier also wants to supply unrestricted two-way radios as described under the Prohibition Notice, then they too must apply to become a permitted person. Unrestricted radios can only be sold to qualified radio amateurs. Applying for a Licence to Supply and a permitted person is a two-step process.
A permitted person will then be obligated to follow the additional terms, conditions and restrictions applied to their Licence to Supply. Permitted persons will also undergo periodic audits to ensure they are following the rules where their licence may be revoked if they are not.
