Persons yet to Register their SIM cards must note the following

A set of corrective measures designed to end the yearlong nationwide SIM registration exercise will kick in from Monday, September 5, 2022.

The corrective measures are as follows:

From Monday, September 5, 2022, subscribers who have not started their registration will have all outgoing calls re-routed to an Interactive Voice Recording (IVR) for a SIM registration sensitization message to be played before all calls are connected.

Subscribers with uncompleted registration, that is those who linked their Ghana Cards to their SIM cards via 404# but have not proceeded to have their biodata captured will also face a similar disruption in service from Wednesday, September 7, 2022.

Corrective measures for data services will however kick in from September 12.

Outgoing calls and data services will be blocked for these affected subscribers for 48 hours once a week once the punitive measures kick in for September 2022.

Subscribers who have neither begun Stage 1 nor completed Stage 2 of the SIM Registration process will be allowed to reconnect their SIMs after duly completing the two stages of the
registration process.

After September 30, 2022, these SIMs as described above will not have access to any service as their SIMs will be deactivated.

Subscribers will have a period of six (6) months to register to redeem their SIMs failing which their numbers will be churned that is re-assigned to
the pool to be sold to potential new subscribers.

The NCA encourages subscribers to register their SIMs to avoid the associated inconvenience and
potential disruption in service after September 30.

Subscribers are further reminded that, all Data
SIMS, that is SIMs in devices such as WiFis, routers, trackers, etc. must also be registered.

MNOs are continuing with SIM registration at their customer care centers and through agents who have been deployed across the country.

Subscribers who have completed stage one (that is linking their Ghana Cards with their SIM cards by dialing *404#) with access to smartphones and
Internet connectivity is encouraged to download the GH SIM SELE REG app on the Google Play
Store to complete their registration.
