AzInTelecom LLC, a member company of AZCON Holding, continues to
implement countermeasures against the registration of mobile
devices imported into Azerbaijan with duplicated IMEI codes.
Within the framework of these measures, a total of 58
515 IMEI codes have been identified, assigned “clone” status, and
subsequently blocked to date. Over the past three months, these
IMEI codes were detected on the network in association with 1 564
073 subscriber identities linked to mobile numbers. As a result, 1
470 109 attempts to access the network using these IMEI codes were
denied by the Mobile Device Registration System (MDRS) operated by
AzInTelecom.
AzInTelecom LLC conducts continuous monitoring and carries out
detailed investigations into IMEI codes suspected of duplication.
IMEI codes confirmed to be duplicated are assigned “clone” status,
and their use is restricted accordingly. The authenticity of mobile
device IMEI codes can be verified through the
mygov portal.
It should be noted that, in accordance with the “Rules on the
Registration of Mobile Devices” approved by a decision of the
Cabinet of Ministers, mobile devices imported into Azerbaijan must
have their IMEI codes registered within 30 days in order to be used
on the country’s telecommunications network.
