To further enhance the management of mobile internet information services, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China (MIIT) announced on Wednesday that all mobile applications must now be registered online through the authority’s website, as stated on its WeChat account. In accordance with China’s network laws, individuals who do not complete the registration procedures will be prohibited from providing APP services, the MIIT stated. Between September 2023 and March 2024, app providers are expected to finalize the registration procedures with their provincial communications administration. Subsequently, from April to June 2024, the authority will oversee the compliance of all applications, taking action against those that have not fulfilled the required procedures.
