On 28 March 2013, ICASA published the General Licence Fees Regulations, 2012, repealing the Licence Fees Regulations of 2009.
The new regulations change the way in which licence fees are calculated. The fees used to be based on profit. Now they are based on revenue. In addition, the percentage applied to the revenue is on a sliding scale, from 0.15% to 0.35% for revenue above 1 000 000 000.
The new regulations came into effect on 1 April 2013.
