What US 47 CFR Part 25: Satellite Communications requires
US 47 CFR Part 25 governs FCC licensing operation and technical requirements for satellite communications including geostationary (GSO) and non-geostationary (NGSO) fixed-satellite service, mobile-satellite service, broadcasting-satellite service, and earth stations. Operators must obtain a Part 25 license from the FCC International Bureau before launching or transmitting; coordination with the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is required for global frequency assignments. Recent updates implement streamlined small-satellite licensing under Part 25 and orbital debris mitigation rules requiring 25-year post-mission disposal target.
