Cellphone owners are advised by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to register their SIM cards.
According to the most recent NTC data, 103,670,164 people, or 61.70 percent, have registered their SIM cards as of July 17, 2023.
The NTC revealed that 7,359,116 of them have signed up with Dito Telecommunications, 47,267,960 have signed up with Globe, and 49,043,068 have signed up with Smart.
According to the data of NTC in December 2022, there are a total of 168,016,400 subscribers.
Those who have not registered may follow the said procedures:
First, check the SIM registration website of the service provider such as Globe, Smart and Dito.
Second, provide your 10-digit mobile number and click the “Register” button.
You will receive a text message containing a One Time Pin (OTP), which you must immediately input on the registration website.
Once your OTP has been validated, you can proceed with the registration.
Among its requests are complete name, birthday, gender, address, and nationality.
To validate your information, a selfie and ID are also required.
You can take a photo and submit government-issued IDs such as passport, national ID and SSS ID, among others.
Once done, you can click the “Submit” button to complete the process.
After the process, a reference number will appear on your screen confirming that your SIM card has been registered. (ANV, TPT)
