📋 Tender Overview
According to information from the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Department of Telecommunications has issued a License to provide telecommunications services with network infrastructure, satellite fixed telecommunications network type, to Starlink Services Vietnam Co., Ltd. The Radio Frequency Department also officially issued a license to use radio frequencies and equipment for this Company. Download In the first phase of service deployment in Vietnam, Starlink will have 4 gateway stations with a maximum terminal size of 600,000 devices. Photo internet According to the granted radio frequency license, in the first phase, Starlink will deploy 4 gateway stations and a maximum terminal equipment size of 600,000 devices. Being licensed to use the frequency means that the system can legally deploy the receiving and transmitting infrastructure in Vietnam, fully complying with the law on radio frequencies and ensuring no interference with existing radio communication networks. Previously, on On March 26, 2025, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 659/QD-TTg allowing controlled pilot deployment of telecommunications services using low-earth orbit satellite technology without limitation on share ownership, capital contribution or contribution ratio of foreign investors. SpaceX is allowed to pilot investment and business in telecommunications services with network infrastructure, a type of satellite telecommunications network using low-earth orbit satellite technology in Vietnam. on the principle of ensuring national defense and security. The pilot of telecommunications service business using low-earth orbit satellite technology will be carried out within 5 years, from the date the enterprise established by the pilot organization in Vietnam is granted a telecommunications service business license and will have to end before January 1, 2031. Starlink is a satellite internet project developed by SpaceX Corporation (USA), aiming to provide high-speed, low-latency broadband internet connection globally. through the low Earth orbit (LEO - Low Earth Orbit) satellite system. SpaceX is an aerospace technology company founded by billionaire Elon Musk in 2002. Unlike traditional telecommunications satellites operating in geostationary orbit about 36,000km from Earth, Starlink satellites fly at an altitude of about 550km. Thanks to that, transmission signals have significantly lower latency, helping to improve internet service quality, especially for real-time applications such as online meetings, online gaming, remote control or emergency data transmission. To date, SpaceX has launched thousands of Starlink satellites into orbit, forming one of the largest satellite constellations in the world. The service has now been deployed in many countries. In addition to providing civil internet, Starlink is also applied in maritime, aviation, natural disaster relief and ensuring communications in areas of conflict or interrupted telecommunications infrastructure.Thu GiangSee moreSpaceX wants to provide Starlink satellite internet service in Vietnam
