RSM Approved Radio Engineers and Certifiers (ARE & ARC)
Radio Spectrum Management (RSM) no longer provides radio engineering for the New Zealand market. An Approved Radio Engineer (ARE) or an Approved Radio Certifier (ARC) can help you determine if you need a licence for your radio service.
Most licence types require engineering certification by an ARE or ARC.
The ARE or ARC may charge you an engineering fee. This fee should be negotiated between both parties before starting your licence application.
Your licence will also require an annual fee payable to the chief executive of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.
NOTE | AREs and ARCs can carry out engineering work for radio services located anywhere in New Zealand.
