1. A method for providing user equipment (UE) radio access capabilities in a handover procedure, the method comprising:
identifying, by a source next-generation radio access network (NG-RAN), that a target public land mobile network (PLMN) does not support a UE radio access capabilities identifier (RAC ID) assigned by a source PLMN in an inter-PLMN handover procedure; and
providing, by the source NG-RAN, for a target NG-RAN, the UE radio access capabilities in response to identifying that the target PLMN does not support the UE RAC ID assigned by the source PLMN,
wherein the UE RAC ID is not sent for the target NG-RAN by the source NG-RAN.
