With this measure, it is expected that 1,508 wireless station operators (14,679 wireless stations) in the affected areas will receive the benefit of the radio wave usage fee waiver.


The Ministry of Science and ICT plans to send notices in September informing that the waived amount will be reflected in the bills from the 3rd to the 4th quarter. Eligible recipients can receive the waiver benefit without a separate application.
