Overview
- The mandate has been in force since January 9 and covers every active line on traditional carriers and mobile virtual network operators, with registration done through operators’ official portals.
- Lines not validated by June 30 may be restricted to emergency calls starting July 1 until the owner completes the process.
- Operators typically require the active number, CURP and a government photo ID, many platforms request a selfie as proof of life, and some virtual providers ask for proof of address.
- Most online systems allow up to three remote validation attempts before directing users to finalize the process at a customer service center.
- News outlets note rising reports of unauthorized linkages, and guidance urges users to contact their carrier immediately, verify which number was tied to their identity, and correct the record in person with official ID.
