Hi,

We are looking for a provider / AFRINIC who can help us to fill the application, we want to find a specialist who will already receive the IP address and can help us.

We want someone who can help us and have experience with AFRINIC.

Anything related with ASN Registration, IPv4 etc.
What we need to open a AFRINIC? How is the easy way to do it?

If anyone can help, please contact us.

Kindly Regards,
Alexhost

    Terrahost was there but it wasn't very successful. They closed again after a year or so.

    Its not about physical presence there, and rather getting subnets from AFRINIC.
    AFRINIC hands them out more easily than more respected RIR's.

    My understanding was the part of the reason afrinic still has capacity is because it is more challenging to apply. All the ASNs I know of are pretty big players.

    You sure? Afrinic Bylaws do seem to specifically tie ip assignment to physical presence:

    AFRINIC membership is open to all individuals and organisations geographically present and providing services in Africa as per sections 6.1 & 6.4 of the AFRINIC Bylaws.

    A request should be made in the name of an entity based in the African region
The entity shall originate the services requiring IP resources from the AFRINIC service region.

    and

    Organisations seeking their first IPv4 or IPv6 assignment must meet the minimum standards, which are;

    Be an AFRINIC resource member

    Exactly what @havoc said. If it was just about getting done a bit more complex than usual application process, people would accept that challanges and their ranges would be more popular but it's tied to physical presence and to my information this is also enforced quite strictly.
