Guyana

Overview

Guyana, officially the Co-operative Republic of Guyana, is a sovereign state on the northern mainland of South America. It is, however, included in the Caribbean region due to its strong cultural, historical, and political ties with other Anglo Caribbean countries and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). Guyana is bordered by Brazil to the south and southwest, Suriname to the east, and Venezuela to the west.

Guyana is a member of the ITU and as such follows radio frequency harmonisation principles according to ITU-R Region-2. The regulatory body governing communications policy is the Ministry of Public Telecommunications, and the National Frequency Management Unit is charged with regulating the country's radio frequency spectrum activities such as planning, allocations, and licencing.
