PTA not to issue Starlink license immediately

Islamabad: The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has decided not to issue a license to Starlink immediately, reportedly.

According to media reports, the issuance of a license to provide satellite internet to Starlink in Pakistan has been further delayed due to the registration being conditional.

It is being said that the PTA has made the issuance of a license to Starlink conditional on permanent registration with the Pakistan Space Activities Regulatory Board (PSARB).

The Pakistan Space Activities Regulatory Board had provisionally registered Starlink on March 21.

PSARB is busy settling all technical and regulatory matters for the permanent registration of Starlink.
