The Turks and Caicos Islands Telecommunications Commission will formally present telecommunications licences to Starlink Caribbean LLC on August 27, 2026, officially authorising the satellite internet provider to enter the local market.

Starlink applied for a Satellite Network and Service Licence and a Spectrum Licence to deliver internet across the territory through customer terminals and low Earth orbit satellites. The approval follows a regulatory process that began with a public consultation in November 2025 to establish rules for satellite operators, whose technology differs from traditional fixed-line and mobile networks.

The invitation-only presentation takes place at 5 p.m. at The Alexandra Resort in Grace Bay, Providenciales. Full details regarding commercial rollout plans, equipment installation, speeds, and total costs will depend on Starlink and its licence conditions.
