Disclaimer
ICASAFiMe provides Proxy Compliance Letters under the ICASA Type Approval license held by North West Networks (Pty) Ltd.
This allows non-compliant Starlink equipment users to remain legally protected. The Proxy Letter is not an ICASA-issued certificate, but a legal proxy letter tied to an existing ICASA license, which is mandated by ICASA. Users remain responsible for ensuring details match their devices.
This service ensures that your Starlink dish and router (hardware) is legally compliant with ICASA regulations. ICASAFiMe’s role is limited to providing a legal proxy for equipment compliance. It does not override, replace, or authorise any broader regulatory permissions regarding the operation of satellite internet services in South Africa. For full legal context, consult ICASA Type Approval Regulations (2013, amended 2021).
