The European Commission has launched a public call for evidence to gather stakeholder feedback ahead of the World Radiocommunication Conference 2027 (WRC-27), with the consultation open until 11 September 2026.

The input will help shape a proposed Council decision, expected in the first quarter of 2027, setting out the EU’s position for the conference. Organised by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), WRC-27 will review global rules governing radio spectrum and satellite orbits, with potential implications for EU policies on connectivity, transport, space and climate initiatives, including Copernicus and IRIS².

The consultation builds on the Commission’s ongoing engagement with stakeholders, including a joint workshop with the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) held in November 2025. The Commission will also consider CEPT’s preparatory work and the forthcoming opinion of the Radio Spectrum Policy Group, which is currently open for public consultation until 24 August 2026.
