On March 16, 2026, the Multisectoral Supervisory Authority for the Economy of Cape Verde (ARME) published the National Frequency Allocation Framework 2026 (QNAF). The framework is the primary regulatory tool for managing the country's radio spectrum and is in line with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Zone 1 standards. The plan introduces critical spectrum allocation for 5G mobile services, IoT, and public safety networks, while retaining dedicated frequency bands for basic maritime and air navigation.
