This matter has to be provided in French, Dutch or English through either an official translation (sworn translator) or an official website. BIPT will, according to this information, determine the level of the licence.

You must register via a GMDSS examination centre. 

The practical exam takes place on the equipment used by the candidate during his or her training. 

There is a €87,04 registration fee, which is non-refundable. 

In case of an annulment more than one week before the exam or upon presentation of a medical certificate, the registration fee can be moved to another date. 

To pass, one must obtain 50% of the points for each subject and 60% in total. No exoneration will be granted for the practical part. 

In case of a re-examination, an exemption is only granted for the theoretical parts for which the candidate obtained 70% or more and if the candidate does so within one year after the original examination. 

In the event of a re-examination, the practical part must always be redone.

Since the entry into force of Brexit on 1 January 2021, the European rules on roaming no longer apply in the United Kingdom.

This means that when you make a call, send text messages or surf the Internet from the United Kingdom (to an EU country), consumer prices may be higher than in an EU country given that operators are allowed to apply a roaming surcharge.

For now, however, certain operators are still applying the “Roam-like-at-home” regime in the United Kingdom on a voluntary basis.

We advise you to check with your operator to find out whether it still applies the "Roam-like-at-home” regime in that country. 

This information is described in the radio amateur frequency plan table which is based on a decision of the BIPT.
