BIPT Council Decision of 29 October 2019 regarding the listing and classification of products and services provided by the universal service provider for the year 2017

2019-11-05 00:00

This decision aims at the implementation of Article 13 of the Royal Decree regarding the analytic accounting of the universal postal service provider of 25 April 2014. In this context, each year, the universal service provider has to provide BIPT with a list of his products and services as well as the classification according to their nature, into universal, public or commercial products or services. This classification is submitted to BIPT's approval. BIPT then communicates this approval to the audit commissioner (in this case, the Supervisory Board).

That type of device is not subject to an authorisation in Belgium, provided that it is registered by the user via www.406registration.com.
