The Kenya Communication Authority (CA) has proposed a substantial increase in licensing fees for satellite internet service providers (ISPs) such as Starlink as it seeks to review the Satellite Landing Rights (SLR) licence it requires for satellite ISPs to obtain to operate in the country.
Under the new proposal, the cost of a 15-year operating license would rise from USD 12,302 (KES 1,579,614) to USD 115,331 (KES 14,808,846), representing an almost 1,000% hike. Additionally, ISPs would be required to pay an annual fee equivalent to 0.4% of their total revenue.
This proposed regulatory change published in December comes as Starlink expands rapidly in Kenya, to address the growing demand for high-speed internet connectivity.
Join me Nick Kanali and Allan Niongira as we discuss what effect this will have on Starlink and its users in Kenya.
