ITU Filing & Coordination Status Tracker

Tracks satellite network filings through the ITU Radio Regulations process — API/AP4, coordination requests, and notifications — with countdown to key deadlines. Deadlines are pre-filled from standard ITU periods but are fully editable, since real cases carry extensions, footnotes, and administration-specific nuance this tool can't know about.

Upcoming deadlines

Changing Filing type or Publication date recalculates the deadline using the standard periods below — but only if you haven't already edited that filing's deadline manually. Edit the deadline directly any time to override.

Standard ITU timelines (reference)

API / AP4 (Advance Publication)

+7 years → bring-into-use deadline

Under RR Article 11 / Resolution 49, a GSO network must be brought into use within 7 years of the API/coordination filing date, or the filing lapses.

CR/C — Coordination Request (Art. 9)

+4 months → comment deadline

Affected administrations have four months from the BR IFIC publication date to respond under RR No. 9.52. No response within that window is generally treated as agreement.

N — Notification (Art. 11)

No fixed external deadline

Submitted for recording in the Master International Frequency Register (MIFR) once coordination is complete or due diligence is satisfied. Tracked here mainly for internal follow-up.

Modification / Resubmission

Case-by-case

Timelines depend on the nature of the change and prior correspondence — set manually.

These are general reference periods commonly cited in satellite regulatory practice, not a substitute for checking the current ITU Radio Regulations edition and any applicable Resolutions, footnotes, or WRC decisions for the specific case.
