The Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) has recognized NOC Automation and IMEI Database (NAID) as the best innovation among the seven services participating in the innovative technology within the commission. The Commission’s Spectrum Division received this recognition at the first Innovation Showcase held on the ground floor of the BTRC building in Agargaon on Monday in the afternoon.
BTRC Chairman Engineer Md Mohiuddin Ahmed handed over the award to Brigadier General Md Moniruzzaman Jewell, Director General of Spectrum Division as the winning innovative service at the concluding ceremony of the showcase.
The NAID system has been officially launched on August 1, 2019 for the automation of Mobile Phone Handset Import No Objection Papers and creation and storage of IMEI Database of imported and domestically manufactured mobile phone handsets in order to protect government revenue and facilitate legal import of mobile phones. Through this, the mobile phone manufacturers/importers of the country are able to file No Objection Application and receive No Objection Letter service within a short period of time and store the IMEI related information of the handset in the NAID system. Apart from this, before buying a mobile phone, people are taking IMEI verification service from NAID system by writing KYD 15 digit IMEI number from any mobile phone and sending SMS to 16002.
