Learn more about the new changes that seek to make the
Angolan electronic communications sector more competitive,
innovative, and aligned with international standards.
Presidential Decree 271/25 of 29 December has recently been
published, amending and republishing the General Regulation on
Electronic Communications (Regulamento Geral das
Comunicações Electrónicas -
"RGCE"). The decree follows
approximately nine years of Presidential Decree 108/16 of 25 May
being in force. During this time, Angola and the rest of the world
have undergone profound and rapid technological transformation.
The electronic communications sector has evolved through the
expansion of high-capacity networks, the consolidation of
artificial intelligence and the increasing provision of
internet-based services and Over the Top (OTT)
platforms. These developments have made it necessary to review the
legal framework in order to align it with the sector's new
dynamics, challenges and realities.
