SIM Registration Act FAQs

What is the SIM Registration Act?

The SIM Registration Act requires the registration of all SIMs, including those in card and electronic form, as a prerequisite to activation. Under the measure, users of all mobile devices, including prepaid broadband devices, must register their SIMs.


The law is there to protect consumers from illegal activities such as scams, smishing, and other kinds of mobile phone and online fraud. These have proliferated because criminals are able to use prepaid SIMs without registering any of their personal information, and so they can use these SIMs without being identified and getting caught. 


Under the law, all SIMs sold by telcos, authorized distributors or resellers will be in a deactivated state and will only be activated once the SIM buyer registers the SIM in the authorized registration platforms.

Who is covered by the SIM Registration Act?

The law covers all individuals, both local and foreign, and corporate entities using SIMs purchased in the Philippines for use in devices such as mobile and modems.

What measures is Globe taking to support the law?

Globe supports the SIM Registration Act and will devote special funding to establish secure systems and facilities that will enable its safe rollout for all its customers.

Can the law stop spam/scam SMS and other fraudulent activities?

The SIM Registration Act is expected to do a lot to stop fraudsters who have used SIMs anonymously for illicit activities. The SRA will serve as additional protection for Globe customers who already benefit from the company's existing investments in fraud-protection tools such as filtering systems, proactive blocking of scam and spam SMS, and data sharing partnerships with banks and other financial institutions.

When will the law’s IRR take effect?

The law’s Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) was published in a newspaper of general circulation on December 12, 2022 and will take effect 15 days after the publication or on December 27, 2022.

How long do SIM users have to register their SIMs?

The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) has extended the registration period for an additional 90 days. This gives all existing prepaid mobile and broadband customers until July 25, 2023 to register their SIMs.

Is SIM registration free?

Yes, Globe's online SIM registration portal is zero-rated and free to access. For Globe Business bulk registration, details and registration requirements have been sent to  your company’s Authorized Representative.

Yes, the law contains clear provisions ensuring the confidentiality of the data of SIM users. Section 9 of the law is a Confidentiality Clause that states: "Any information and data obtained in the registration process described under this Act shall be treated as absolutely confidential and shall not be disclosed to any person." This protective clause takes effect once you successfully register your SIM.


The law also penalizes breach of this confidentiality clause. User information may only be released if a subscriber authorizes access to their information. Telecommunications firms may only be compelled to reveal subscriber data via court order. End-user data will be deleted from the SIM following the number recycling process but archived by telcos for at least 10 years, or as long as active, as prescribed by law.

If you have previously registered by texting 8080 or through the online portal, then you are already registered. Your registration in the online portal will update your existing SIM Registration information. Details, however, from the online portal will only be used for SIM Registration and will not update your postpaid account billing details.

How can I confirm that my SIM is already registered if Globe will automatically register me?

An SMS will be sent to your mobile number (see below). This will serve as your reference that you are automatically registered.


“To our valued Globe Postpaid and Platinum customers, your existing postpaid account details are now included in the SIM Registration database in compliance with RA 11943 or the SIM Registration Act.

I already confirmed my registration by texting SIMREG to 8080, but I also submitted my details through the SIM Registration online portal. What will happen to my registration details?


If you have previously registered by texting 8080, your registration in the online portal will update your existing SIM Registration information. However, details from the online portal will only be used for SIM Registration, and will not update your postpaid account billing details.

I have updated my postpaid account billing details. Will this change my SIM registration details?

Updating your postpaid account billing details will not automatically update your SIM Registration details. If you have previously registered by texting SIMREG to 8080, you can register again through the online portal to update your existing SIM Registration details.

I received a reference code when I used the SIM Registration online portal. But I did not get any reference code when I sent an SMS to 8080. What reference code can I use?

You can use the reference code from the SIM Registration online portal. Although you were not issued any reference code when you sent an SMS to 8080, your registration is valid if you received an SMS confirmation. 

If I am already registered and I transfer ownership of the account, will the registration be automatically transferred to the new owner of the mobile number?

Yes, SIM registration details will be automatically transferred to the new owner.
