Starlink users in Kenya are now mandated to complete fresh identity verification to continue service, following updated regulatory requirements from the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA). This measure aligns Starlink with Kenya's existing telecom subscriber verification framework.

• All existing Starlink customers in Kenya must submit additional identifying information by a specified deadline or risk service interruption or deactivation.
• New customers are now required to provide government-issued identification, including a copy of a photo ID, before activating service.
• The name entered under "Contact Information" must exactly match the details on the identification document, indicating tighter Know Your Customer (KYC) enforcement.
• The CA has intensified enforcement around subscriber registration across telecom and financial services, citing national security and fraud prevention concerns.
• This development signals that satellite internet providers are now fully integrated into Kenya's regulatory framework, similar to traditional telecom operators.
