Starlink to Impose Additional Fees for Unauthorized Usage of Devices Outside Purchased Country

Starlink updates its usage terms to prevent issues with purchasing satellite internet receiver kits across borders, which may sometimes be cheaper. The company will impose additional fees if the device is activated outside its designated areas, which are divided into the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Oceania. If a device is detected as being used across regions not designated for sale, additional fees may be incurred, resulting in a higher overall cost than purchasing directly in the area.

It is recommended by the company that customers interested in using Starlink purchase through authorized distributors in their respective countries to avoid the extra charges associated with buying outside their designated areas.

TLDR: Starlink updates usage terms to prevent extra fees for using devices outside designated areas. Purchase through authorized distributors to avoid additional charges.
