MTV Networks Europe - MTV Licensing

MTV Licensing

Viacom International Media Networks Europe main headquarters are located in New York, United States of America, London, United Kingdom and Warsaw, Poland. In the past, most of the MTV channels throughout Europe are licensed through the UK broadcasting regulator Ofcom. This is not unusual within Europe, many broadcasters may locate their productions and output departments in one country but receive their broadcasting license from another European country. For example MTV Networks Europe in Warsaw often produces programming for much of Europe, while MTV Networks Europe in London operates the broadcasting and licensing issues for this programming. As of 2010, MTV Networks Europe now receive their broadcasting licenses from broadcasting authorities in the Czech Republic (RRTV). All pan-European channels and channels broadcasting in the Czech Republic and Poland are licenced by RRTV.
