It should be noted that the introduction of satellite telephones / modems in some countries, such as India, is prohibited or requires special authorizations and that possession of the same could be subject to heavy sanctions by local authorities.
It is therefore recommended to acquire the relevant information in advance from the diplomatic-consular authorities of the country to visit, present in Italy.
