Executive Summary / Technical Parameters

  • Cellular Devices: Require GSMA TAC verification letters and 3GPP spectrum reports.
  • Enterprise Routers: Evaluated under ZICTA network interface and EMC rules.
  • IoT Sensors: Sub-GHz and BLE devices must comply with national spectrum power limits.

The Zambia Information and Communications Technology Authority (ZICTA) regulates all radio frequency equipment across commercial, industrial, and consumer categories to ensure non-interference with licensed mobile networks like MTN Zambia and Airtel Zambia.
