Check Before You Buy! Before paying for any phone, make sure it’s Type Approved and verified for Nigerian networks. Dial *315# on a phone with a Nigerian SIM or visit ncc.gov.ng/DeviceChecker. Enter the 15-digit IMEI (get it by dialing *#06#) and confirm the result says the device is Type Approved and verified. Phones already connected before 7 October 2026 are automatically verified. For full FAQs, visit @ConsumersNCC on X, the NCC WhatsApp channel, or the official NCC website. Stay protected.
