Marine Radio Devices

Technical regulations regarding marine radio devices are planned to be revised in accordance with international standards (ITU/IMO). 

Please refer to the details below. 

Public opinions will be collected until August 23, 2024.


■ Location Transmitter for Search and Rescue: The regulations on technical standards for search and rescue, which were stricter than international standards, will be relaxed to the level of international standards.


■ Satellite Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB): In accordance with international standards, the content is updated to mandate that the Satellite EPIRB be equipped with an Automatic Identification System (AIS) function.


■ Onboard Communication Station: Analog transmitters using a channel spacing of 25 kHz are specified to have an occupied bandwidth of 16 kHz, and analog transmitters using a channel spacing of 12.5 kHz are specified to have an occupied bandwidth of 8.5 kHz.


■ Autonomous Maritime Radio Equipment: To resolve the ambiguity of transmission messages such as identification numbers and navigation status, it will comply with ITU recommendations to align with international standards.

The revised Intelligent Robot Act, which came into effect on November 17, 2023, is expected to lead to an increasing encounter with robots delivering food or goods while walking on sidewalks. For the safety of pedestrians, robots allowed to move on sidewalks are restricted to a weight of 500 kg or less and a width of 80 cm or less. The speed of movement is regulated to be 5-15 km/h depending on the weight. To operate a business using robots, it is necessary to obtain operational safety certification from a designated certification authority. The certification authority will issue a safety certification, similar to a 'pedestrian license,' certifying the safe operation of the robot, after evaluating 16 criteria, including compliance with operational zones, pedestrian crossing, dynamic stability, speed control, and remote operation. Furthermore, the robot must comply with traffic laws, and in the case of jaywalking or violation of safety regulations, the operator may be subject to

  On December 13th, the government announced plans to enhance the competitiveness of the secondary battery industry during an emergency economic ministerial meeting.   A bill will be introduced by 2024 to systematically promote the post-use battery industry. A three-stage safety inspection system will also be implemented for the secure distribution and utilization of electric vehicles with used batteries and reusable products. Batteries meeting performance criteria are recognized as products from the dismantling stage, with extended storage periods for recycling and mandatory information input at each lifecycle stage through legislation. The patent review period for secondary batteries will be shortened from 21 to 10 months. Exemptions for electric sales permits will be granted to electric two-wheeler battery exchange services, and support will be provided for new markets like secondary battery subscriptions. Tax deductions for overseas resource development investments, sta

  The KATS is driving the development of 19 national standards, including robots, electric vehicle chargers, and everyday services KATS has announced plans to promote standard development for the improvement of public convenience and the welfare of vulnerable populations. The plan is to enhance the quality and standardization of products and services such as everyday robots, electric vehicle chargers, and personal mobility platforms to improve convenience in daily life. 1. Through the standardization of performance criteria and evaluation methods for companion robots, we aim to enhance the convenience of living for single-person households and the elderly. 2. We plan to alleviate the inconvenience of difficulty in confirming the status of electric vehicles and chargers' malfunctions by standardizing the display content of errors that may occur during the electric vehicle charging process. 3. In order to improve the quality of personal mobility platform services, we are promoting st
