DoCoMo have just announced their fees for October’s number portability launch. The company said that subscribers switching to DoCoMo from other operators will not be charged an MNP transfer fee, but like all new applicants, must pay a contract handling fee of 3,150 yen (incl sales tax). DoCoMo subscribers who move to other operators will be charged an MNP transfer fee of 2,100 yen (incl sales tax). DoCoMo will conduct an MNP Reservation Campaign, 10 Sep-23 Oct. People who apply to DoCoMo during this period and who conclude a contract between 24 Oct-31 Dec will be awarded 2,000 DoCoMo points (worth 2,000 yen), which can be applied toward the purchase of DoCoMo handsets or other products.
