All you need to know about Sim Card Registration Act.
What is RA 11934?
An Act acquiring the registration of all Prepaid Subscriber Identity Module (Sim Cards). Also known as Sim Card Registration Act.
The registration of a sim card will not cost you anything meaning it’s totally free so beware of people asking for payment. It covers both prepaid and postpaid.
For people with existing sim, they must register 180 days from the effectivity of the law otherwise it will be deactivated.
The registration will be at the point of sale which means that a sim will not be sold to a person who refused to give his personal information.
