Number portability

End users gain access to telecommunication services via numbers. For this reason, the development of an efficient numbering plan is a determining factor for guaranteeing quality and the success of telecommunication services.

An operator can freely negotiate access with other operators throughout the European Union. This implies that any operator providing a public electronic communications network has an obligation to negotiate in good faith, with any operator requesting it, an interconnection agreement for the purpose of providing publicly available electronic communications services.

The basic regulatory provisions on the directories are laid down in Article 45 of the Electronic Communications Act of 13 June 2005; the basic regulatory provisions on the enquiry services are laid down in Article 46 of the Electronic Communications Act of 13 June 2005.

For fixed telephony you need a provider for the connection and a provider for the fixed telephony service (calls).

In general, an operator must fulfil all the legal obligations as defined by the Act on electronic communications (ECA) and its implementation orders.

What kind of helpdesk do I need? Where can I find relevant/useful information? Should the connection be available at all times? Beware: providers promise their best effort, but please check the quality announced and verify whether your provider undertakes to repair defects.

A radar is an installation made to search the surroundings for objects (targets) in the air, on land or at sea, by means of radio waves.

Any device which can emit and/or receive radio waves is a radio equipment. The legislation provides that radio equipment placed on the market (marketed) must comply with essential requirements: BIPT is tasked with the monitoring of the radio equipment marketed in Belgium. Market monitoring protects the consumer, contributes to fair competition and prevents the marketing of devices that may pose a risk to the population and/or cause harmful interference. additional restrictions may apply to radio equipment in a number of EU Member States.

Radio interference can disrupt and render impossible the proper operation of transmitters and/or receivers. The NCS service of the BIPT (the National Spectrum Monitoring Department) is responsible for "policing the radio waves". Cases of interference can be reported by post, telephone, fax or e-mail. Interference occurring in telephones should first be reported to your telephone operator.
