How much does an FCC radio license cost? The cost is minimal considering an FCC license lasts for 10 years, and fines can be thousands of dollars. See the cost of each FCC license type below, costs include all FCC fees.
Who can use this type of license? These licenses are in the FCC's Industrial/Business Pool. Eligibility is open to organizations or persons engaged in commercial, educational, philanthropic, ecclesiastical, healthcare, association, or state and local government. A license covers the entire organization and all its members/ employees.
Can I use a GMRS license for my business? No. The FCC licenses GMRS for personal use only and includes only the licensee and their immediate family members.
Can I use FRS radios for my business? Yes. Recent changes to FCC rules now allow FRS for business usage. However, most businesses find that due to interference and weak signals these radios do not work well for business needs.
I already have radios. Can I use your licensing service? Yes. We can license you for radios you currently own.
* Note: Nonprofit organizations receive a $100 discount from the FCC (requires a 501c letter from the IRS).
