The Ministry of Communication, Telecommunications and Digital Affairs has published an important statement for the attention of those in the media sector. This notice aims to remind you of the mandatory procedures for the registration of media operating in Senegal and their compliance with the regulations in force.
Media officials are invited to check their status on the provisional list published by the ministry. Media outlets not on this list will receive as soon as possible an official notification specifying the deficiencies to be corrected.
In addition, media that have not yet completed their registration must imperatively regularize their situation by registering on the official platform within 72 hours. ???? Link for registration : www.declarationmedias.sec.gouv.sn

- Better supervise media activities.

- Promote a media environment consistent with national laws and regulations.
Media outlets that do not comply with these requirements within the stipulated deadline are subject to sanctions which may include the suspension of their activities. The ministry recalls that this approach is essential to guarantee the harmonious and legal functioning of the sector.
