Taiwan Outlines Initial Details of 4G License Auction

Published on:

­Taiwan's telecoms regulator, the NCC has set the spectrum allocations for its forthcoming 4G license auction.

The NCC said that bidding for licenses would be set at "15MHz multiplied by two," while the upper limit will be set at "35MHz multiplied by two."

There will be a total of four licenses available, each with 17-year licenses, and may come with conditions forbidding the use of unlimited data tariffs.

Although operators will be required to bid for between 15Mhz and 35Mhz in the auction, they will be able to later sell blocks of 5Mhz to other operators.

By setting the basic unit at "15MHz multiplied by two," the NCC will effectively prevent opportunists from taking advantage of the auction, allowing telecommunication firms to develop healthily, Alison Kao, a Far EasTone Telecommunications public relations manager told the China Post.

The auction is due to take place late next year.
