Kenya: Update to Technical Specifications for Cellular Mobile Equipment

🇰🇪 As of March 24, 2026, new technical specifications have been implemented in Kenya.

All cellular devices must comply with the revised requirements during the approval process:
  • The use of USB Type-C as a charging interface.
  • The charging cable must also be detachable from the power adapter.

Note that this provision does not affect equipment (phones, tablets) approved before March 24, 2026.

You are invited to comply with this provision to avoid the rejection of your projects in Kenya.
