Example embodiments provide a method and system for performing a bearer type change of a plurality of radio bearers configured for a User Equipment (UE) including changing the bearer type of a specific bearer by the network and checking any changes in keys, packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) termination point, or PDCP version change. Furthermore, the UE is notified to change the bearer type either through a reconfiguration procedure without handover, a secondary node (SN) change procedure or reconfiguration procedure with handover, or a SN change procedure. The network indicates one or more operations to the UE for performing the bearer type change.
