Overview
- All active mobile numbers, including prepaid, postpaid, SIM and eSIM used in Mexico, must be linked to a verified individual or legal entity or they will be suspended.
- Carriers have 30 days from the start date to deploy registration platforms and up to 120 business days to complete linkage, with suspensions expected to begin around late June 2026.
- Users must present CURP and an official ID such as INE or passport, while companies must provide RFC and representative documentation; foreigners may use a valid passport.
- Individuals can link up to 10 lines, with the cap not applying to legal entities or individuals with business activity; suspended numbers can be reactivated once registration is completed.
- Wholesale operators (Altán Redes, Telcel, AT&T) will build the systems that virtual operators must lease, and firms that fail to comply face fines ranging from 0.01% to 0.75% of revenue.
