Croatia Gears Up For UMTS

March 20, 2003 - source: BWCS

The Croatian government has announced plans to offer three UMTS licences and a third GSM concession later this year. The country’s Transport and Communications Minister, Roland Zuvanic, told Reuters: “We are close to finalising conditions for the new GSM operator and the UMTS facility. I would assume that we will be able to call tenders during the second quarter of this year.”

Up to three UMTS licences will be sold for a fixed fee of HRK132 million (US$18.33 million) each, although Zuvanic said that this price may still be changed: “Personally, I deem it too high. We are currently studying the experience of other European countries before making a final decision.” Successful bidders will be required to pay a further HRK12 million annually on top of the initial licence costs. The GSM licence will be sold for HRK105 million.

The two existing GSM operators, Deutsche Telekom-backed Cronet and Mobilkom Austria subsidiary VIPnet, have both signalled their interest in applying for a 3G concession. Croatia was home to just over two million GSM subscribers by mid-2002, with Cronet claiming just over half of the market with around 1.1 million customers.
