Submitting an application

  • Applications should be submitted by 20 June 2025. Applications received after this date will be given lower priority. It might not be possible to respond to late applications before the start of the event
  • Applications should include exact details of the intended spectrum use and the relevant parameters.

Application for spectrum use at venue and in immediate vicinity (1 km radius)

Applications for the assignment of spectrum for short-term use
should be made using the form spectrum use application for venue (FISU)
and emailed to FISU25@bnetza.de

Application for spectrum use at other locations

Applications for spectrum use at other locations can be made using the following form:
Spectrum use application for other locations (FISU)

Notification of spectrum use at venue and in immediate vicinity (1 km radius)

To enable effective and interference-free spectrum use during the event, the Bundesnetzagentur must be notified of any planned use of spectrum under an existing assignment or a general assignment. Please see: List of bands for which spectrum may be used without a separate assignment

To notify the Bundesnetzagentur, please use the following form and always remember to give the current assignment number: Notification of spectrum use (FISU)
This applies to any plans to use spectrum within a radius of one kilometre of any venue in the period from 1 to 27 July 2025.

Help with choosing spectrum

It is not possible to assign spectrum from certain bands for short-term use.
A list of these bands is available here:
List of bands for which spectrum assignment is not possible

Some spectrum can be used under a general assignment without the need for a separate assignment, but use of the spectrum needs to be notified to the Bundesnetzagentur (see above).
A list of this spectrum is available here:

Inspection of equipment

The Bundesnetzagentur will inspect all equipment used under a general/individual/short-term assignment at the venues and press centres and in the immediate vicinity (approximately one kilometre radius) and will give stickers to equipment that passes inspection.

Any equipment that is not in proper technical condition or for which no (short-term, individual or general) assignment has been granted will not be given a sticker and will not be able to be operated. The inspections will be carried out by representatives of the Bundesnetzagentur, who are available at the press centres, broadcast compounds and media centres.

Fees

Fees are charged for assigning spectrum and, under certain conditions, for rejecting applications.

Amount of fees

Under the Telecommunications Act (TKG) in conjunction with the current version of the Bundesnetzagentur’s special ordinance on fees for spectrum assignment, the fee for the temporary use of spectrum (up to 30 days) is at least €30.

Please note that the short-term assignment fees for applications that the Bundesnetzagentur receives less than 15 days before the first day of use (based on the receipt stamp for postal applications or the date of receipt in the email inbox for email applications) or for larger areas of coverage are higher based on a sliding scale.

Further information can be found in the Bundesnetzagentur’s special ordinance and in the administrative rules for short-term assignments (VVKuNz).

The file below can be used to calculate the approximate fees payable.
Calculation of fees

Please note that the fees calculated using the file are estimates. The exact fees can only be calculated on the basis of the data provided in an application and the actual short-term spectrum assignment granted.

Annual contributions

Spectrum assignment holders must also pay annual contributions. These contributions are calculated in accordance with the Spectrum Protection Contributions Ordinance (FSBeitrV).

Short-term assignments are not currently subject to contributions.
