Register Your Mobile Device in the MDMS System in Nepal

The Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA) has been working on the Mobile Devices Management System (MDMS) in Nepal for a very long time. The MDMS is a system that keeps track of all the cellular devices that are imported into Nepal or are running on the network of any telecom company. This is done to keep track of all the devices that are using SIM cards on any Nepali telecom networks. The phrase ‘Nepali telecom network’ is key because roaming is not applicable to this as all international numbers are exempt.

If you are purchasing a smartphone in the Nepali market, if you are asking your friend to bring a new iPhone for you, or if you are bringing some smartphones for your family members while returning from abroad then it affects you. So there are a few things that you should be clear about.

Here are the steps on how to register your mobile device in the MDMS system:

1. Go to the NTA website and click on the MDMS registration link.
2. Enter your mobile device’s IMEI number.
3. Enter your personal information, such as your name, email address, and contact number.
4. Click on the submit button.

Your mobile device will be registered in the MDMS system within 24 hours.
