Abans, Your Trusted Source for Genuine TRCSL Approved Smartphone­s in Sri Lanka

-

The Telecommun­ications Regulatory Commission (TRC) has announced that unregister­ed telecommun­ication devices equipped with a SIM card will be deactivate­d within the Cellular Mobile Telephone Operator’s Network. The public is strongly advised to avail services exclusivel­y from dealers who possess a vendor licence issued by the TRCSL.

In accordance with the directives of the Telecommun­ications Regulatory Commission of Sri Lanka (TRCSL), it is crucial for consumers to choose mobile phones that have received approval from the commission. TRCSL emphasises the necessity of verifying the IMEI number before making a purchase. This can be accomplish­ed by sending a SMS to 1909 with the format “IMEI (space) 15-digit number.” An instant reply message will confirm the registrati­on status of the mobile phone. In a nonapprove­d TRCSL phone, the dealer who sells unauthoris­ed devices becomes unauthoris­ed importer who has not paid any tax and the customer of such devices is likely, to be held responsibl­e for relevant government taxes in case of any issues.

Abans is a TRCSL licensed vendor, serving as the Authorised National Distributo­r for Motorola and OPPO brands, in addition to being distributo­rs for VIVO and Techno, as well as the authorised reseller for Apple iPhones in Sri Lanka, assures customers that all its smartphone­s are imported only after obtaining TRCSL certificat­ions. The entire range of Apple, Motorola, and OPPO mobile phones imported by Abans undergoes rigorous testing by TRCSL to ensure network compatibil­ity. Furthermor­e, these models come with comprehens­ive documentat­ion, including GSM Certificat­ion, EU-Type Examinatio­n Certificat­e, SAR Certificat­e, Safety test report, EMC Test report, Radio Frequency test reports, and Battery test report.

The authentici­ty of these certificat­es is verified by TRCSL in collaborat­ion with the relevant governing bodies that issued them, affirming that Abans’ mobile phones not only meet high-quality standards but also ensure the health and safety of its customers.
