Mobile Number Portability: MNP

Tired of your current mobile operator and planning for Mobile number portability.
Below are the steps you need to follow for MNP.

Step 1
Obtain “Unique Porting Code” from your current Mobile operator
Send SMS ‘PORT <your 10 digit mobile number>’ to 1900 from your Current Operator mobile to get Unique Porting Code.


Step 2
Call executive of your desired Mobile operator, fill CAF (Customer Application Form) & Porting form or visit their office.
Submit the form with required documents like photo ID, Address proof, also if you are a post-paid customer submit your last bill & last bill paid receipt.


Step 3
Obtain a New SIM card from your new mobile operator.

You will receive an acknowledgement SMS from +1901 within 4 days for your Current operator Portability request. Within 3 days from then you will receive SMS from +1901 confirming your port out request successful.

After 12pm midnight, mobile services from Current operator will be stopped and you will have to use the New SIM obtained from another Mobile Operator keeping your current mobile number.



Important note:
Last payment you make to current mobile operator make sure you overpay it to make sure that the bill that comes for using the services during the MNP process will have been already paid and no issues takes place due to pending bill.
