2024: Ministry of Digital Development estimated at 3 billion rubles the costs of operators for data transmission in GIS KSIM
The total expenses of Russian mobile operators for the transfer of data on their subscribers to the new system of Roskomnadzor will amount to more than ₽3 billion. This information was published in the draft resolution of the Ministry of Digital Development, which was published on the portal in early September 2024 regulation.gov.ru
As RBC writes in the issue of September 5, 2024, a new state information system for monitoring the performance of telecom operators in the provision of services (GIS KSIM) is being created to implement the recently adopted legislative changes. The system will allow you to control the number of SIM cards from subscribers - citizens Russia and foreign citizens - and will become a tool for stopping the service of subscribers who have exceeded the established limits.
In August 2024, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law limiting the number of SIM cards per person. Russians will be able to own no more than 20 SIM cards, and for foreign citizens this limit will be 10 SIM cards. Contracts with foreign citizens will be concluded only in person, provided that the subscriber's data is registered in the Unified Biometric System (EBS).
The draft resolution also sets additional requirements for mobile operators. In particular, they are obliged to transfer data on the number of numbers allocated to individuals and legal entities, data on employees who have entered into an agreement, and other information. The new rules will come into force on April 1, 2025 and will affect 132 telecom operators.
According to representatives of the Ministry of Digital Development, the lack of up-to-date information on the number of SIM cards can contribute to the use of communication services for illegal purposes. The new system will be integrated with the existing resources of Roskomnadzor and will expand the list of transmitted information. In addition, operators will be able to check whether the limit of SIM cards per subscriber has been exceeded.[1]
