TRA issues last manually signed spectrum authorisation

The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority, TRA, has completed the smart transformation process of its frequency spectrum services, as part of its strategy to enhance smart transformation in the UAE. Customers can now receive frequency spectrum services from their location without the need to visit TRA or its service centres.

TRA is the mandated entity for managing and regulating the frequency spectrum in the UAE, which includes the allocation of frequency spectrum for all radio communication services, coordination and protection of frequency spectrum through monitoring with latest equipment and devices, and representing the UAE in all regional and international forums related to the Information and Communications Technology, ICT, sector.

Hamad Obaid Al Mansoori, TRA Director-General, said, "The success and progress of the smart transformation of the ICT sector facilitates the smart transformation of other sectors and services, as the telecommunications sector is the key to development in the knowledge-based society and economy that we are witnessing today.

"We are currently working to enhance interconnection internally and with various entities, which would strengthen integration to achieve the strategic directions of our country, particularly global leadership."
