of <h1>India Bans Import of Mobile Phones with Fake IMEI Numbers; Requires Registration with GSMA for Certification.</h1> The circular issued by the Indian Customs Department outlines the implementation of a Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) notification prohibiting the import of mobile phones with duplicate, fake, or non-genuine International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) numbers. The notification requires mobile equipment manufacturers or brand owners to register with the GSMA database to obtain IMEI certificates for importing mobile phones into India. The process involves verification by the GSMA/MSAI system, which issues certificates for genuine IMEI numbers. Customs officers will verify these certificates during import clearance, with procedures in place for handling improper imports. The notice is effective from February 1, 2016.
