MXThe Mexican telecommunications regulator, the Comisión Reguladora de Telecomunicaciones (CRT), has implemented a phased suspension of mobile lines that have not completed the mandatory cell phone registration process by linking their number to their CURP (Unique Population Registry). Users whose numbers end in 2 now have until September 15 to complete the registration. The regulation aims to enhance security controls in telecommunications services by verifying customer identities to protect accounts and reduce extortion-related crimes. Once the deadline passes, telecom companies must suspend service temporarily for non-compliant lines for 72 hours, allowing only emergency calls during this period. Users can complete the registration through their telecom provider’s website using their CURP and a valid ID, followed by identity verification via their mobile device camera and capturing images of both sides of their ID. The CRT urges users to complete the registration before the deadline.
