Licensing
Licensees may be required to perform standard filing tasks after obtaining a license. These tasks may be performed using the Universal Licensing System (ULS). Standard tasks are:
Licensees are required to apply for timely modification of their licenses as necessary to show their correct mailing address, name, club name, license trustee, or custodian name.
On the next business day following a successful submission of an application, you can check the status of your application in the Universal Licensing System.
The FCC offers licensees the opportunity to request a specific call for their primary station and for their club station.
Licensees may file for renewal 30-60 days, but no more than 90 days, before their license expiration date. If your license expires, you may apply for renewal of the license for another term during a two-year filing grace period.
If an original license document or permit document is lost, mutilated or destroyed, a licensee may obtain a replacement by logging into their License Manager.
