What Is IMEI Registration?

The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is a unique 15‑digit code for each SIM‑enabled device. Per Department of Telecommunications (DoT) rules, all manufacturers and importers must register device IMEIs before sale or import into India to prevent cloning, tampering, and unauthorized network access.

Why IMEI Registration Matters

• Theft & Loss Prevention: Registered IMEIs can be blacklisted if devices are stolen or lost. • Regulatory Compliance: Mandatory under the IMEI 2022 Amendment Rules. • Import/Export Facilitation: Customs clearance requires valid IMEI records. • Network Security: Telecom operators block unregistered or cloned devices.

Key Benefits of IMEI Registration

• Device Tracking: Unique IMEI acts as a digital fingerprint for location and recovery. • Legal Market Access: Ensures only compliant devices enter India. • Consumer Protection: Reduces circulation of counterfeit devices. • Network Integrity: Maintains safe mobile networks by blocking unauthorized handsets.
