FCC Imposes Broad 'Foreign Adversary Control' Reporting Requirements

[Michael M]

Holders of or applicants for authorizations on Schedule C are exempt from initially attesting as to whether or not they are subject to foreign adversary control.
Schedule C includes authorizations for which the FCC assesses there is a limited likelihood of foreign adversary control, other reporting obligations already provide sufficient visibility into foreign ownership or control, authorization holders’ role in communications networks presents minimal national security risks, or authorization holders are already subject to other Commission regulations that adequately address the national security risks.
Schedule C consists of:
Amateur radio service licenses
Voluntary antenna structure registrations
Ship and aircraft licenses
General Mobile Radio Service licenses
Commercial radio operator licenses (pursuant to 47 CFR part 13)
Authorizations for individuals to operate stations by rule in the ship, aircraft, and personal radio services
FCC auction applications
Equipment authorizations obtained solely under the SDoC process
