Calculation of fees due for the provision of electronic communications networks and services, in 2016, pursuant to point b) of paragraph 1 of article 105 of Law No. 5/2004, of 10 February - (Electronic Communications Law - ECL)1
1. Under paragraphs 1 and 2 of Annex II to Administrative Rule No. 1473-B/2008, of 17 December, as amended by Administrative Rule No. 296-A/2013, of 2 October, it is hereby made public knowledge of the value of the t2 contribution rate, which results from the application of the following formula, thus obtained:
Formula: t2 = (C-t1n1)/ ∑R2;
C= Total costs incurred in the regulation of the provision of electronic communications networks and services, amount that corresponds to fees due to ANACOM in 2016 = 29,882,629€;
∑R0 = Amount of relevant revenues of bodies of tier 0, in 2015 = 2,203,340€;
∑R1 = Total amount of relevant revenues of bodies of tier 1, in 2015 = 19,525,054€;
∑R2 = Total amount of relevant revenues of bodies of tier 2, in 2015 = 4,331,169,516€;
∑R = Amount of relevant revenues of all providers of electronic communications networks and services in 2015 = 4,352,897,910€;
T1 = Fee due by bodies of tier 1 (relevant revenues >250,000€
n1 = Number of bodies of tier 1 = 26;
T1n1 = 2,500 € x 26 = 65,000€;
t2 = Fee due by bodies of tier 2 (relevant revenues >1,500,000€) = (29,882,629€ - 65,000€) / 4,331,169,516€ = 0.6884%;
The amount of fees to be settled results from applying the 0.6884% rate to the relevant income of each operator in tier 2.
2. Amounts of relevant revenues of some electronic communication providers were subject to a review, further to an audit carried out by Decision of ANACOM’s Management Board.
