The
TRC disclosed a detailed breakdown of direct transfers
to the public treasury for the years (2021-2022-2023), with a cumulative amount
of approximately JD303 million. This significant financial injection into the
public treasury is set to play a pivotal role in supporting various national
initiatives and developmental projects.
Amassed since its inception, the total sum of TRC’s direct
transfers to the public treasury stands at JD2.161 billion. This amount
encompasses various revenue streams, including annual licensing returns,
revenue shares, frequency fees, and postal license fees.
The financial success of TRC can be attributed to the
diverse sources of its financial resources, including annual revenue shares
derived from the operational revenues of mobile phone companies, returns from
licenses and permits (encompassing frequency returns), fees, and penalties
levied in adherence to telecommunications laws. Additionally, funds allocated
in the state general budget and other resources sanctioned by the cabinet also
supplement the
Commission's financial capabilities.
