PTALicense
Pakistan Telecommunication Authority licensing for telecom services.
In Pakistan, no telecom service can be operated without prior authorisation from the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA). This covers internet service providers, VoIP and value-added service providers, radio networks, call centers, and resellers of telecom services.
The right license class depends on the nature and scale of your operations. Selecting the wrong class, or operating without a license, exposes your business to heavy penalties, service disconnection, and legal action.
We identify the correct license class for your business, prepare the technical and financial documentation, file your application with PTA, and manage follow-up until the license is granted.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which activities need a PTA license?
Operating telecom services — internet, VoIP, bandwidth, or call center operations — requires a PTA license appropriate to the class of service (LD, CM, ISP, VAS, or LDI).
How do I know which license class I need?
The class depends on what you actually do — reselling internet, providing bandwidth, VoIP routing, or running a call center. We assess your operations first so you never over- or under-license.
Can I operate while the application is pending?
No. Telecom service must not commence before licensing is granted. We plan the timeline so your commercial launch matches the approval schedule.
What if I already operate without a license?
Contact us immediately. We can assess your exposure, regularise your position with PTA, and handle any liability the regulator raises — the longer you delay, the higher the penalty risk.
