UK-s on nii:
maksvad majapidamised olenemata vastuvõtu tüübist (terrestriaal,sat,kaabel või internet).
ei maksa kui TV-ga vaadatakse ainult DVD/muu meediat ,mängitakse või vaadatakse saateid järelvaatamisena BBC iplayer, Vo4 jne.

*Watching TV on the internet:
You need to be covered by a licence if you watch TV online at the same time as it's being broadcast on conventional TV in the UK or the Channel Islands.
*Video recorders and digital recorders like Sky+:
You need a licence if you record TV as it's broadcast, whether that's on a conventional video recorder or digital box.
*With today’s technology, you can watch TV on more devices than ever, whenever it suits you best. This means a TV Licence doesn’t just cover you to watch TV at home on a TV set. You can also watch or record television programmes as they're being shown on TV, through all of these devices:
Computers, including laptops and tablets
Mobile phones
Games consoles
Digital boxes, e.g. Freeview, Sky, Virgin, BT Vision
DVD/VHS/Blu-ray recorders.
As long as the address where you live is licensed, you’re also covered to watch TV outside your home using any device powered solely by its own internal batteries. This includes your mobile phone, laptop and tablet.
Exception: If you only watch catch-up services online, then you don’t need a licence. For example, you don’t need one to use BBC iPlayer, or ITV player, to catch up on programmes after they have been shown on TV.
*Watching TV without a valid licence is a criminal offence. This can lead to prosecution, a court appearance and a fine of up to £1,000 (not including legal costs). The exceptions are in Guernsey where the maximum fine is £2,000 and Jersey it is £500.

Kuidas kontrollitakse:
How we can detect if you’re correctly licensed:
*National database: We have a database of approximately 31 million licensed and unlicensed addresses. This tells us if your address has a TV Licence.
*Enforcement officers: All our enforcement officers have access to this database. This means they can check if you have a valid licence or not.
If you inform us that you do not watch television, enforcement officers may still visit you to confirm this.
*Hand-held detection devices: Enforcement officers may use a hand-held detection device to measure both the direction and the strength of a TV signal. This makes it easy for us to locate TV receiving equipment in even the hardest-to-reach places.
*Detector vans: We also have a fleet of detector vans that can detect the use of TV receiving equipment at specifically targeted addresses within minutes.
