There have recently been reports of a possible increase in the broadcasting fee. This is because the public broadcasters have earned more money from the licence fee than meets their needs.

This increase in income may only be spent with the approval of the KEF fee commission. In April 2015, for the first time in the history of broadcasting financing, the contribution fell - from 17.89 euros by 48 cents to 17.50 euros. In August 2021, the fee was then increased to the current level of 18.36 euros per month.
