Infrastructure Provider for the Telecommunication Industry (InTi) Licence

An InTi Licence allows an operator to deploy any form of telecommunication infrastructure inside and outside of his own premise to enable telecommunication services to be offered to third parties subject to the provision of the Telecommunications Order, 2001.

Telecommunication infrastructure includes any telecommunication system, network facilities and equipment (other than Customer Premise Equipment, “CPE”) for the carriage of telecommunication and broadcast traffic. Such traffic can be domestic or international in nature, and coverage may also be nationwide or localised to a region. The types of infrastructure provided can include fixed communication systems such as switches, optical fibres, cable ducts, submarine cables, frontier stations, international cables and satellite gateways that offer voice, data and leased circuit services. The infrastructure may also include mobile communication systems such as base stations and mobile switching centres that offer public mobile phone, paging, trunked radio or other mobile data service.

An InTi Licence may be granted to provide one or more of the following infrastructure:

  1. Mobile Telecommunication Infrastructure
  2. Non-Fixed Telecommunication Infrastructure
  3. Fixed-Wired Telecommunication Infrastructure
  4. Fixed-Wireless Telecommunication Infrastructure

Regulatory Approach for Market Access in the Telecommunications Sector

 

The regulatory approach for market access in the telecommunications sector serves to guide decision-making related to Infrastructure Provider for the Telecommunications Industry (InTi) and Service Provider for the Telecommunications Industry (SeTi) Licences.

The publication of this regulatory approach provides transparency into market access requirements and regulatory certainty for market players and prospective market players in relation to the Authority’s licensing framework and aims to:

  1. Encourage active market participation and foster the development of new and innovative services that cater to the needs of end-users (both business and consumers).
  2. Encourage the entry of new market players, such as Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

This regulatory approach takes effect on 13 July 2023 and shall end on 1 January 2025 where full market liberalisation will take place.
