of <h1>India Bans Unauthorized Satellite Phones: DOT License Required for Legal Use; Customs to Enforce Strictly.</h1> The circular from the Ministry of Finance, Department of Revenue, addresses the illegal use of satellite phones in India, emphasizing the requirement for a license from the Department of Telecommunications (DOT). Only specific INMARSAT terminals are permitted, while the use of 'Thuraya' phones without DOT approval is illegal under the Telegraph Act, 1885. The circular highlights security concerns due to unauthorized use by anti-national elements. Arriving passengers must declare satellite phones to Customs, and clearance is contingent on DOT permission. Display boards and revised arrival cards will inform travelers of their obligations. Customs officials are instructed to enforce these regulations vigilantly.
