IMBONI launches national device registry

Rwanda's trusted IMEI registry is now live for citizens, shops, police, and ISPs.

By IMBONI Team

IMBONI is now open as Rwanda's national device trust platform. Citizens can verify IMEIs before they buy, shops can register inventory with confidence, and enforcement partners share one source of truth.

What you can do today

  • Look up any IMEI on the public verify page
  • Register as a citizen and claim devices you own
  • Apply as a licensed shop to manage stock and transfers

We built IMBONI so device status never disagrees across the ecosystem. Over the coming months we will expand ISP blocking workflows, importer integrations, and richer analytics for administrators.

Thank you for helping keep Rwanda's mobile market safe and transparent.
