What Telekommunikationsgesetz (TKG) vom 23. Juni 2021: Zweck und Anwendungsbereich, Marktregulierung, Frequenzzuteilung and Right to Supply of Telecommunications Services requires
The Telekommunikationsgesetz (TKG) of 23 June 2021 is the German federal statute that transposes the European Electronic Communications Code into national law and regulates the German telecommunications sector. Section 1 (Zweck des Gesetzes, Anwendungsbereich) states the purpose of the Act, which is to promote competition in the field of telecommunications through technology-neutral regulation, to ensure efficient infrastructure and to safeguard the interests of end-users, and fixes the scope of the Act. Part 2 (Teil 2 - Marktregulierung) sets out the market regulation framework administered by the Bundesnetzagentur, including market definition, market analysis, the designation of undertakings with significant market power and the imposition of access and price-control obligations. Part 6 (Teil 6 - Frequenzordnung) governs the spectrum order, and Section 91 (Frequenzzuteilung) provides that every use of a frequency requires a prior frequency assignment unless the Act provides otherwise. Section 156 (Recht auf Versorgung mit Telekommunikationsdiensten) establishes an end-user right to the supply of telecommunications services against undertakings designated by the Bundesnetzagentur, securing affordable access to an adequate internet access service and voice communications service at a fixed location, including a minimum quality of service. The TKG is the central regulatory instrument for licensing-equivalent authorisation, market regulation, spectrum management and universal service in Germany.
