According to Article 1 of said circular, any creation or modification of telecommunications service tariffs must be submitted to CONATEL for non-objection at least eight clear days before its application.

Type approval in Haiti
CONATEL (Comission Nationale des Télécommunications) is the regulatory body for telecommunications in Haiti. It oversees and regulates the telecommunications sector in the country, including phone services, internet, and broadcasting.
CONATEL approval refers to the authorization or certification granted by CONATEL for businesses or individuals involved in telecommunications-related activities. This could involve several aspects, such as:
Licensing: Companies providing mobile phone services, internet access, broadcasting services, or other telecommunications-related services must obtain a license from CONATEL. This ensures that the company is compliant with national regulations and standards.
Frequency Allocation: If a company needs to operate a communication system that requires
specific radio frequencies (e.g., mobile network, TV, or radio broadcasting), they must obtain
the appropriate frequency licenses from CONATEL.
Equipment Approval: Before deploying or selling telecommunications equipment (such as
mobile phones, radios, or network infrastructure), companies must have the equipment
approved by CONATEL to ensure that it meets local technical standards and does not
interfere with other services.
Regulatory Compliance: Businesses in the telecommunications space must adhere to various regulations set by CONATEL, such as maintaining network quality, protecting consumers, ensuring fair competition, and complying with data privacy laws.
In essence, CONATEL approval is a necessary step for any telecommunications company or entity operating in Haiti to ensure compliance with the legal and regulatory framework set by the government.
