UAE TRA formalises Calling Name Presentation (CNAP) Requirement for Mobile Phones

The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) has announced the introduction of the Calling Name Presentation (CNAP) feature as a compulsory requirement for all mobile phones retailed in the UAE. This directive affects both new and existing models available in the market.


Additionally, mobile phones that are already approved and in circulation within the UAE are required to conform to this updated standard. Registered dealers are tasked with implementing the essential software upgrades to ensure these devices meet the new compliance criteria.
