CITEL/CEPT Amateur Radio Operating Reciprocity

ARRL report an amendment aims to promote CITEL/CEPT amateur radio
operating reciprocity

Chile recently became the third country to sign the Amendment of the
Inter-American Convention on the use of an International Amateur Radio
Permit (IARP).

Once the Amendment is in effect, Chile and other Inter-American
Telecommunication Commission (CITEL) signatories may offer reciprocal
Amateur Radio privileges to Amateur Radio licensees from European
Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT)
member countries that have implemented CEPT Recommendation T/R 61-01
(CEPT Radio Amateur License).

The Inter-American Convention says CEPT-country licensees “shall be
entitled to the same rights and privileges enjoyed by holders of the
IARP, provided, however, that CEPT accords all holders of the IARP the
same rights and privileges enjoyed by holders of the CEPT Amateur
Radio license. The Organization of American States (OAS) General
Assembly approved the treaty last June; CITEL comes under the OAS
umbrella.
In addition to Chile, the Dominican Republic and Argentina have signed.

IARPs are not be valid for operation in the territory of the issuing
country and are valid for 1 year. A Class-1 IARP allows the use of all
frequency bands allocated to the Amateur and Amateur-Satellite
Services and specified by the country where the amateur station is to
be operated, per Recommendation ITU-R M.1544. A Class-2 IARP permits
utilization of all frequency bands allocated to the Amateur and
Amateur-Satellite Services above 30 MHz and specified by the country
where the amateur station is to be operated.
