4 Can we capture a satellite filing using this system?

This function is not available in the e-Submission system at the moment. Information for a satellite filing should be captured using the BR's software tool SpaceCap before the submission starts.

5 After a filing was submitted through the e-Submission website, do we still need to send the satellite filing by email?

Once you have submitted the filing, you do not need to send it via email. Rule of Procedure on receivavility was revised to make email unnecessary. Submission through email and telefax could be requested only under exceptional conditions.

​

6​ Is it mandatory to submit the notices using this system? May we submit mdb files by e-mail?

7 How do we know if the Bureau has received the satellite filing?

You will receive an automatic acknowledgement via email sent to the email address of your TIES accounts when the filing is submitted to BR.

You can also see the acknowledgements on the system.

8 When is the received date, and accepted date? How can we know them?

Administrations get an automatic acknowledgement when a notice was submitted to BR. This acknowledgement includes the date and time of submission.

Administrations get an​other automatic acknowledgement when the submitted notice was accepted by BR. This acknowledgement includes the date and time when it was accepted by BR.

However, the date of submission and the date of acceptance by BR mentioned in the above automatic notices are definitive. After further checking in details, the BR will assign the official date of receipt of your notice and you will be informed about it through an official correspondence.

9 Do we need to register email address to receive acknowledgement emails?

You do not need to register an email to receive acknowledgement emails.

Any automatic acknowledgement email will be sent to your email address associated with TIES account. This way you will be informed for the next actions on your filing such as submission to BR , acceptance by BR, publishing 'As-received'.

10 How do we know the cost recovery fee for the satellite filing?

By using the BR software SpaceCap, you can have the preliminary information related to the cost recovery fee. After further processing of the notices, the final cost recovery fee will reflect the modifications and provisions made inside when it is published.

11 How do we know whether the satellite filing is receivable?

If the filing is not receivable, or requires further clarification, the Bureau will communicate with the Administration.

12 How do we know when the satellite filing will be published?

When the filing is published for "As-received", submitting Administrations, and the submitting operating agency will get automatic message via the system and emails sent to their TIES accounts.

You can see the As-Received filings on the system, as well as all filings published for "As-received" are listed in the following public website (SNL-C) ​ https://1f8a81b9b0707b63-19211.webchannel-proxy.scarabresearch.com/net4/itu-r/res55asreceived/

13 What is the difference between a filing and a file?

For the purpose of the e-Submission systems, a filing is a package of files that contain the characteristics of a satellite network as defined in Appendix 4, as well as any additional description of that network.

A file may be a mdb file captured with SpaceCap, a mdb file captured with GIMs, or of any other format that supports the mdb file.

14 Why do I need to validate the notice before submitting the filing to the Bureau?

Validation or Cross-validation with GIMS diagram database is necessary in order to check that the notice is complete and correct as required by Radio Regulations and Rules of Procedure.

It should be noted that incomplete notices are not receivable in accordance with Radio Regulations and Rules of Procedure.

To ensure that the validation is executed prior to the submission of the notice and the users are aware of the completeness of the notice. If needed they must correct some issues before submitting the notice.

15 Where can we find background information about satellite filing procedure?

Please visit the BR Space website to get the detail information: https://1f8a81b9b0707b63-19211.webchannel-proxy.scarabresearch.com/ITU-R/go/space/en​

16 What do you adopt for security measures?

• All files are scanned for viruses with an up-to-date anti-virus software when they are uploaded or attached to the  correspondence.
• Direct access to internal BR databases is blocked by a firewall.
• Security/threat monitoring is on place.

17 Do we need to change the file extension of mdb files from ".mdb" to ".itu" or ".abc" when submitting files on this system?

You do not need to change the file extension anymore. You can upload and submit the files with the extension .mdb.

18 What should I do if I cannot submit filings?
