USA (FCC) - Correction to Final Rules Appendix of FCC 22-84

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the USA has issued a correction to the Final Rules Appendix of FCC 22-84. The correction updates the requirements for changes in name, address, ownership, or control of the grantee in the case of a transaction that affects the grantee. Transactions that affect the grantee, such as mergers, transfer of control, sale to another company, or transfer of manufacturing rights, must be communicated to the Commission within 60 days after the completion of the transaction.

The notice must include the following:

• Written and signed certification stating that the equipment to which the change applies is not prohibited from receiving equipment authorization under § 2.903 as of the date of the notice is filed.

• A statement affirming or denying that the applicant is on the Covered List as an entity that produces covered communications equipment.

• Written and signed certifications that are required under § 2.911(d)(7).

The Commission may require new applications or certifications on a case-by-case basis. New applications for each device will not be required, and a single application may cover all of the equipment affected by the change.

These corrections came into effect on April 21, 2023.
