The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) has sought public input on proposed rules governing the deactivation and recycling of inactive mobile numbers. The CA explained that the draft procedures aim to better manage the country's numbering resources while safeguarding the rights of consumers. The proposed guidelines were published on September 1, 2026, and the CA invited comments until September 11, 2026.

Submissions can be emailed to numbering@ca.go.ke. The draft documents, including technical safeguards, are available on the CA's website under the Open Consultations page.
