The procedure for obtaining a frequency licence is as follows:

• The applicant files an application with the Commission by completing the prescribed form RF3 detailing all the technical and operating data of the proposed equipment. A detailed network layout should be attached.
• Duly completed RF3 form(s) together with any additional attachments should be returned to CCK together with a nonrefundable application fee of Kshs. 1,000 for full amateurs and Kshs. 200 for novice amateurs.
• CCK examines the application in line with the ITU table of frequency allocations as well as national table of frequency allocations in regard to the proposed frequency band and technical parameters. In case of favorable findings, CCK carries out technical analysis and consequently assigns suitable frequencies as appropriate and communicates the same to the applicant, together with relevant conditions of the frequency assignment. The applicant is also advised to remit the requisite frequency licence fee as per the frequency fee schedule
• At the same time, CCK checks whether the proposed equipment has been type approved. If it has not been done, the applicant is requested to seek for type approval from Type Approvals & Standards division of the Commission (i.e. involves checking the technical and operating parameters of the equipment against CCK's specifications for that category of equipment to ensure the equipment's technical acceptability).
• A frequency licence is issued once type approval for proposed equipment is received and upon payment of frequency licence fee.
• The period of validity of a frequency licence is one year and must be renewed at the expiry of the period by returning to CCK the expired licence with appropriate renewal fee.
