With the implementation of the SIM Registration Act in the Philippines, all mobile users, including Globe and TM subscribers, must register their SIM cards to continue using mobile services. If you’re a new or existing Globe user, this guide will walk you through the Globe SIM registration process, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity.
Why Is Globe SIM Registration Important?
The primary goal of mandatory SIM registration is to enhance security by preventing fraud, scams, and other cybercrimes. By linking a SIM card to a verified identity, the government aims to protect consumers from phishing attacks, text scams, and unauthorized access to personal data.
Failing to register your SIM before the deadline will result in deactivation, meaning you won’t be able to make calls, send texts, or access mobile data. To avoid this inconvenience, it’s essential to complete your registration as soon as possible.
Who Needs to Register Their Globe SIM?
The registration process applies to:
1. New Globe Prepaid and TM Users – If you recently purchased a Globe or TM SIM card, you must register it before activation.
2. Existing Globe Prepaid and TM Subscribers – Users with active SIM cards must register to continue using mobile services.
3. Globe Postpaid and Platinum Customers – Postpaid users are automatically registered, but Globe may still require confirmation of details.
4. Foreign Visitors Using Globe SIMs – Tourists using prepaid SIMs must register them with a temporary validity period.
Requirements for Globe SIM Registration
To successfully register your Globe SIM, ensure you have the following:
An active Globe or TM SIM card
A valid government-issued ID (such as a passport, driver’s license, or national ID)
A smartphone, tablet, or computer with an internet connection
A valid email address or an alternative mobile number for verification
For minors, SIM registration should be done under the parent or legal guardian’s name.
