- IMDA will de-register the approved registrations of 3G-only mobile terminals and non-VoLTE capable mobile/smart phones. 

- The sale of 3G-only mobile terminals and non-VoLTE capable mobile/smart phones for local use will accordingly no longer be allowed. Dealers/equipment suppliers who had previously registered such mobile terminals and mobile phones with IMDA shall stop all sale of such deregistered mobile terminals and mobile phones for local use by this date.
