The Communications Regulatory Authority (CRA) issued an Individual License for the Provision of Public Satellite Telecommunications Networks and Services to Starlink Satellite Qatar W.L.L. This follows the decision of His Excellency Mohammed bin Ali Al Mannai, Minister of Communications and Information Technology.

The License granted to Starlink Satellite Qatar contributes to enhancing the availability of telecommunications services in remote locations away from mainland, especially in areas where the services of the current licensed companies are not fully available (such as oil and gas platforms at sea, ships, yachts and aircrafts), provide complementary and alternative telecommunications services for individuals and enterprises consumers, and provide back-up communications throughout the State of Qatar in the event of a major outage in telecommunications networks.
