On October 8, 2026, the Arcom launched a call for applications for national television services, broadcast terrestrially via hertzian waves in high definition.

This call comes ahead of the expiry, in December 2027, of the current authorizations for six services: 6TER, L’EQUIPE, RMC DECOUVERTE, RMC LIFE, RMC STORY, and TF1 SERIES FILMS.
The new authorizations, issued under this call, will be valid until 2035, aligned with national authorizations from the previous year. This aims to facilitate future evolution of the offerings on TNT.
Application files must be submitted to the Arcom electronically. Candidates must first send an email to aactnt@arcom.fr by noon Paris time on December 1, 2026, to receive the electronic submission procedures. The complete application must then be submitted by noon Paris time on December 15, 2026. Submitted files can be modified until this final deadline.
