SIM Owner Details Pakistan — Check Free Instant, Legal & 100% Official — 2026 Verify Every SIM Registered on Your CNIC in 30 Seconds — Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone & SCO — No Private Database

Send your 13-digit CNIC number — without dashes or spaces — as an SMS to 668 from any Pakistani mobile phone on any network. The reply arrives within approximately 30 seconds and shows the exact count of active SIMs per operator across Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, and SCO. The zero-cost alternative producing more detail is PTA’s official portal cnic.sims.pk, which additionally shows the exact registration date for each SIM and generates printable records accepted as legal documentation. In January 2026, PTA specifically directed all subscribers to use both channels following the suspension of 4.7 million unauthorized SIM connections.

668 (send your 13-digit CNIC) shows the total count of every SIM registered across all five operators on your CNIC — this is your complete CNIC security audit tool used to detect unauthorized connections. 667 (send MNP) shows the specific registered ownership details — name, partial CNIC, and activation date — of the one SIM that is physically inserted in your phone at that exact moment. Neither code can remotely look up another person’s mobile number or retrieve data about any SIM you do not physically hold. Practical rule: use 668 for your full monthly audit, use 667 when you need to verify a specific SIM card in your hand.

Yes. cnic.sims.pk is the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority’s official consumer-facing web portal for checking the complete record of SIM registrations against any CNIC at absolutely zero cost. PTA’s January 2026 enforcement advisory specifically named cnic.sims.pk as the primary recommended tool for all routine subscriber SIM verification. Results from this portal display exact registration dates per operator, are updated in real time from PTA’s SVMS database, and are formally accepted as legal documentation by courts, police stations, and banks throughout Pakistan.

Three official PTA methods work completely without internet access. First, send your 13-digit CNIC as an SMS to 668 from any Pakistani phone — works on feature phones and smartphones alike, average 11-second response. Second, send MNP to 667 from the SIM you want to verify — works offline with a 6-second average response. Third, use the network-specific USSD codes: dial *321# for Jazz, *345# for Telenor, or *333# for Ufone — all deliver instant results with no data connection required. All three methods are 100% PTA-authorized and free.

Yes — with one absolute legal boundary. Under PECA 2016 and PTA regulations, you are fully and legally authorized to check SIM owner details for connections registered against your own CNIC using 668, 667, and cnic.sims.pk. What is completely prohibited — enforced as a criminal offence without any exception — is accessing another individual’s SIM registration data without a court-issued legal authority. Violations are prosecuted by the FIA Cybercrime Wing and carry penalties of up to 7 years imprisonment and Rs. 5,700,000 in combined fines, applied equally to both site operators and individual users.

Under PTA’s 2026 regulations, a single CNIC or NICOP may hold a combined maximum of 8 SIM connections — specifically 5 voice SIMs and 3 data-only SIMs — calculated across all five network operators together, not per individual operator. You may distribute your permitted SIMs across any combination of Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, and SCO as long as the respective voice and data totals are not exceeded. If your 668 check reveals a count higher than the SIMs you personally registered, you have unauthorized connections — report immediately to the relevant operator and PTA’s free helpline 0800-55055.

No — this is strictly prohibited under Pakistani law. PECA 2016 Section 16 specifically criminalizes accessing, retrieving, or sharing another individual’s SIM registration data without explicit legal authority granted by a court order. You may only legally verify SIM connections registered on your own CNIC (via 668 or cnic.sims.pk) or confirm ownership of a SIM card physically in your possession (via 667). The capability to look up a stranger’s full name, CNIC, or home address by entering their mobile number does not exist through any PTA-authorized channel — and any website claiming to offer this service is operating illegally.

DIRBS — Device Identification, Registration, and Blocking System — is PTA’s fully automated 24/7 enforcement platform that operates with zero human intervention and issues no advance warnings. It automatically blocks any SIM that exceeds registration limits, permanently blocks biometrically unverified SIMs after 120 days with no recovery pathway, and blocks non-compliant device IMEIs on all Pakistani networks simultaneously. The most critical DIRBS risk for innocent Pakistanis: if criminals register enough unauthorized SIMs on your stolen CNIC to push the total count past the legal maximum, DIRBS automatically blocks your own legitimate SIM — without any notification, without any appeal process, and without any possibility of restoration. This is the primary reason monthly 668 checks are essential, not optional.

PECA 2016 imposes criminal penalties on both operators and users of illegal SIM database services. Under Section 3, unauthorized database access carries 3 months imprisonment and Rs. 100,000 fine. Under Section 4, unauthorized data transmission adds 6 months and Rs. 100,000. Under Section 16, unauthorized use or sale of identity information carries 3 years and Rs. 5,000,000. When all sections apply simultaneously — as in cases of operating or regularly using illegal SIM sites — the combined maximum reaches 7 years imprisonment and Rs. 5,700,000 in fines. The FIA Cybercrime Wing actively investigates and prosecutes both site operators and individual paying users.

To check Jazz SIM owner details at no cost: insert the Jazz SIM into your phone and send MNP to 667 — receive the registered owner name, partial CNIC, and activation date within 6 seconds. To see all Jazz SIMs registered on your CNIC, dial *321# on a Jazz SIM or send your CNIC to 668 from any phone. To check Jazz biometric verification status, send your 13-digit CNIC to 6001 on a Jazz SIM. For additional assistance, call the Jazz helpline at 111 free from any Jazz connection. Jazz number prefixes: 0300, 0301, 0302, 0303, 0304, 0305, 0306, 0307, 0308, 0309, 0320–0329.

For Zong SIM owner details at zero cost: insert the Zong SIM and send MNP to 667 for instant owner verification within 6 seconds. To check all Zong SIMs on your CNIC, send your CNIC to 310 from a Zong SIM or check cnic.sims.pk for the full breakdown. Zong biometric verification status is checked by sending the letter V to 7911. Call the Zong helpline at 310 free from any Zong connection for further assistance. Zong number prefixes: 0310, 0311, 0312, 0313, 0314, 0315, 0316, 0317, 0318, 0319, 0360–0365.

For free Telenor SIM owner details: insert the Telenor SIM and send MNP to 667 — results arrive within 6 seconds with the owner’s registered name, partial CNIC, and activation date. Check all Telenor SIMs on your CNIC by dialing *345# from a Telenor SIM. Verify biometric status by sending your 13-digit CNIC to 7751. Call the Telenor helpline at 345 free from any Telenor connection. Telenor number prefixes: 0340, 0341, 0342, 0343, 0344, 0345, 0346, 0347, 0348, 0349.

For free Ufone SIM owner details: insert the Ufone SIM and send MNP to 667 for instant owner details within 6 seconds. See all Ufone SIMs registered on your CNIC by dialing *333# from a Ufone SIM. Check biometric status by sending the letter V to 7911 from your Ufone SIM. For direct assistance, call the Ufone helpline at 333 free from any Ufone connection. Ufone number prefixes: 0330, 0331, 0332, 0333, 0334, 0335, 0336, 0337, 0338, 0339.

For SCO SIM owner details: insert the SCO SIM and send MNP to 667 — this returns the registered owner name, partial CNIC, and activation date from any network. For SCO SIM verification assistance, call the SCO helpline at 321. To see all SCO connections on your CNIC alongside other operators, send your CNIC to 668 from any phone or check cnic.sims.pk. SCO primarily serves regional areas of Pakistan including Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan. SCO number prefixes: 0355, 0356, 0357.

Send the 11-digit mobile number (beginning with 03) as an SMS to 76367 from any Pakistani network — the registered network name is returned within seconds. You can also identify by prefix: 0300–0309, 0320–0329 = Jazz; 0310–0319, 0360–0365 = Zong; 0330–0339 = Ufone; 0340–0349 = Telenor; 0355–0357 = SCO. Important note: the prefix method is unreliable for numbers that have been ported through Mobile Number Portability (MNP) — the ported number retains its original prefix while switching to a new network. For ported numbers, always use the 76367 SMS service to confirm the current active network.

Take these six steps in sequence without delay: (1) Take a dated screenshot of your 668 result as your official evidence. (2) Call the relevant operator helpline — Jazz: 111, Zong: 310, Telenor: 345, Ufone: 333, SCO: 321 — to report the unauthorized SIM and log a formal complaint. (3) Visit the nearest franchise of that operator in person carrying only your original CNIC, request “SIM Disowning,” complete biometric verification, and collect your written reference receipt. (4) File a formal complaint at complaint.pta.gov.pk or call 0800-55055 free, 24/7. (5) Immediately notify your bank, freeze JazzCash and Easypaisa if involved, and change all account passwords. (6) Re-verify via 668 on days 18–20 after the franchise visit — the SIM count must be reduced. Biometrically disowned SIMs are permanently and irreversibly blocked with no reactivation possible.

Six key warning signs indicate unauthorized SIM activity on your CNIC: (1) The 668 reply shows more SIMs than you personally registered — this is the most direct confirmation. (2) You receive OTP messages for transactions, account logins, or financial operations you did not initiate. (3) Your phone completely loses network signal without any operator-announced outage — the primary indicator of a SIM swap attack. (4) Banks or lending institutions contact you about accounts, loans, or transactions you never opened or authorized. (5) You begin receiving complaints or legal notices connected to criminal activity you did not commit. (6) Your own legitimate SIM is blocked or suspended by PTA without prior notification. If any of these occur, run a 668 check immediately and follow the blocking guide above.

PTA’s DIRBS system enforces a strict progressive timeline for biometrically unverified SIMs. Days 1–30: warning SMS notifications are sent to the SIM. Days 31–60: outgoing calls and SMS are restricted — you can still receive but not make calls. Day 90 onwards: all services are fully suspended. Day 120 onwards: permanent and irreversible blocking — your mobile number is lost forever with absolutely no recovery option. No operator, no PTA official, and no court order can restore a number that has been permanently blocked through this process. If your SIM is approaching this deadline, visit your operator’s nearest franchise immediately with your original CNIC — biometric re-verification is completely free and takes under 10 minutes.

Four essential steps protect your mobile wallet accounts from SIM-based fraud: (1) Run a monthly 668 check to confirm no unauthorized SIM is registered on your CNIC — an unauthorized SIM can be used to receive your wallet’s OTP and drain your balance. (2) Set a transaction PIN for both JazzCash and Easypaisa that is different from your mobile banking PINs — change it every three months. (3) Enable in-app biometric authentication where available, which prevents OTP-based account access even if your number is compromised via SIM swap. (4) If you lose phone signal suddenly without any network issue, immediately call your operator from another phone — a SIM swap means every OTP your wallet sends goes directly to the fraudster. Never wait to investigate unexplained signal loss.

No — and this is by deliberate design. Once a SIM has been formally disowned through the official biometric franchise process, it is permanently and irreversibly blocked. No mobile operator, no PTA official, no legal appeal, and no court order can restore a number that has been biometrically disowned. The permanent nature of this blocking is a core security feature of the system — it prevents criminals from recovering access to SIMs they used under stolen identities. This is also why the disowning process mandates in-person biometric verification from both parties — the irreversibility of the outcome requires absolute identity certainty before any action is taken.

No — both are illegal and dangerous. Sites like paksiminfo.com and Minahil Sim Data claim to return another person’s full name, home address, and CNIC number by entering their mobile number. This is technically impossible through any PTA-authorized channel — PTA’s actual SIM database is a classified government system with no public or third-party API access of any kind. These sites display either fabricated data or information obtained from illegal data breaches. They harvest your CNIC number through their search interface for fraudulent resale. PTA has permanently blocked 1,300+ such sites. The FIA actively investigates and prosecutes users of these services under PECA 2016. Use only 668, 667, cnic.sims.pk, and SimOwner.net.pk.

“Pak Sim Data” is a colloquial term that has been misappropriated by illegal platforms to describe Pakistan’s official SIM registration database — which is called the Subscriber Verification Management System (SVMS) and is maintained jointly by PTA and NADRA. The SVMS is a classified government system. No third party has ever been granted legal access to it. Any website, app, or service marketing itself as a “Pak Sim Data” lookup tool is presenting either fabricated records, data purchased from illegal breaches, or randomly generated results to create the appearance of functionality. Using such services violates PECA 2016 and creates personal criminal liability for the user. Legitimate access to your own SIM records is available only through 668, 667, and cnic.sims.pk.

No authorized public-facing live SIM tracking service exists anywhere in Pakistan. Real-time GPS location tracking of a mobile number based on SIM registration is a classified law enforcement capability restricted entirely to authorized government agencies operating under specific court orders through direct operator network access. No consumer website, app, or paid WhatsApp service has this capability legally. Any platform claiming to offer real-time SIM location tracking is definitively lying — it either displays fabricated GPS coordinates or installs malware that secretly tracks your own device. Both operating and using such services is a serious criminal offence under PECA 2016.

When you enter your CNIC or mobile number into an illegal SIM lookup site, typically four things happen simultaneously: (1) Your CNIC or number is immediately recorded and sold to data broker networks used by fraud operations for SIM swap attacks and identity theft. (2) A fabricated or stolen record is displayed to make the search appear functional — this result has no connection to PTA’s actual database. (3) If you downloaded an associated APK app, keylogging software begins recording your banking app credentials, PINs, and SMS messages including OTPs. (4) The site charges you a fee — Rs. 350 to Rs. 5,500 is common — for an entirely made-up result. Your initial CNIC entry is the only real data transfer that occurred, and it went directly to criminals.

SIM ownership transfer requires both the current registered owner and the intended new owner to be physically present together at the relevant operator’s franchise location. Both parties must carry their original CNICs — photocopies are rejected. Both must complete biometric fingerprint verification against NADRA MBVS records at the franchise. The current owner must sign an official transfer request form. Transfer fees range from Rs. 200 to Rs. 500 depending on the operator and are processed the same day. The process cannot be completed remotely, online, by phone, or through any mobile application — in-person attendance of both parties at the same time is mandatory without exception. For corporate or business SIM transfers, additional documentation including NTN certificates may be required.

These are two distinct processes with different outcomes. SIM disowning permanently removes an unauthorized SIM from your CNIC record — the number is permanently blocked and cannot be reactivated by anyone. It requires only your presence at the franchise with your original CNIC. It is the appropriate process when you discover unauthorized connections on your CNIC. SIM ownership transfer moves a SIM from your CNIC to another person’s CNIC — the number continues operating under the new owner’s identity. It requires both parties to be present simultaneously. It is the appropriate process when legitimately selling or gifting a SIM to another person. The franchise officer will help you identify which process applies to your specific situation.

Yes — and doing so is highly recommended before using any second-hand phone in Pakistan. Insert the SIM from the phone and send MNP to 667 — this returns the registered owner’s name and partial CNIC, confirming whether the SIM is legitimately registered to the seller or potentially stolen or misregistered. Additionally, check the IMEI compliance of the device itself by dialing *#06# to retrieve the IMEI number, then verify it at PTA’s DIRBS portal. If 667 shows a different owner than the seller represented, do not use that SIM and report the discrepancy to PTA. An unverified SIM in a second-hand phone creates legal liability for whoever inserts and uses it.

Overseas Pakistanis have two fully functional remote verification options. cnic.sims.pk is accessible from any browser in any country worldwide at zero cost — no VPN required, no Pakistani SIM needed. All major operator apps (My Jazz, My Zong, My Telenor, My Ufone) function internationally when logged into an active account. For filing complaints from abroad, PTA’s complaint portal at pta.gov.pk accepts international submissions with no geographic restrictions. For physically blocking unauthorized SIMs from outside Pakistan, the process requires authorizing a trusted family member in Pakistan to attend the franchise in person — they must carry your original CNIC and a notarized power of attorney letter granting them authorization to act on your behalf. Both documents are mandatory; no alternative is accepted. Quarterly cnic.sims.pk monitoring is the minimum recommended frequency for overseas Pakistanis.

Take all eight of these actions within 24 hours of discovering the loss: (1) File an official police report and obtain a written FIR copy with case number. (2) Visit the nearest NADRA office to report the stolen CNIC and formally request a fraud flag placed on your identity record. (3) Send your CNIC to 668 immediately and screenshot the result as your baseline evidence. (4) Visit all relevant operator franchises with alternative ID proof to block any unauthorized SIMs found. (5) Change all passwords on banking apps, primary email accounts, JazzCash, Easypaisa, and social media platforms. (6) Replace SMS-based 2FA with Google Authenticator or a similar app-based solution wherever possible — SMS-OTP can be intercepted via SIM swap. (7) Contact your bank and formally request enhanced account security monitoring. (8) Notify JazzCash and Easypaisa and request temporary spending limits and security reviews of your accounts.

In January 2026, PTA escalated its SIM registration compliance enforcement by automatically suspending 4.7 million mobile connections nationwide — all of them linked to CNICs that had not completed required biometric re-verification through NADRA’s MBVS system within the mandated timeframe. PTA simultaneously issued a national consumer advisory directing all Pakistani mobile subscribers to immediately verify their CNIC’s current SIM count via cnic.sims.pk and complete in-person biometric re-verification at their operator’s franchise if any SIM showed a “Not Verified” status. This enforcement action represents the largest single SIM compliance operation in Pakistan’s telecom history and signals that ongoing enforcement will continue. Subscribers who have not verified their biometric status since this announcement should act immediately.

Pakistan has four dedicated reporting channels for different categories of mobile fraud. For spam calls, unauthorized SIM connections, and network violations, file a complaint at complaint.pta.gov.pk or call PTA’s free helpline at 0800-55055 available 24 hours, 7 days. For blackmail, financial fraud, cybercrime, and criminal threats, use the FIA Cybercrime Wing at complaint.fia.gov.pk or call their emergency helpline at 1991, also free and 24/7. For immediate physical threats or extortion, visit your nearest police station directly and file an FIR. Before filing any complaint, preserve all evidence: dated call logs with timestamps, screenshots of threatening messages, any available call recordings, and comprehensive records of all financial transactions connected to the incident.

PTA provides free biometric verification status (BVS) checks through operator-specific channels. For Jazz, send your 13-digit CNIC to 6001 from your Jazz SIM. For Telenor, send your 13-digit CNIC to 7751 from your Telenor SIM. For Zong or Ufone, send the single letter V to 7911 from the respective SIM. From any network, sending MNP to 667 returns biometric status alongside ownership details. The full enforcement timeline for unverified SIMs: Days 1–30 receive warning SMS, Days 31–60 outgoing calls and SMS are restricted, Day 90+ all services fully suspended, Day 120+ permanent irreversible block with no recovery. If your status shows “Not Verified,” visit your franchise immediately — re-verification is free and takes under 10 minutes.

For any SIM you receive from another person — whether purchased, borrowed, found, or gifted — insert it into your phone and send MNP to 667 from that SIM. The reply confirms the officially registered owner’s name and partial CNIC within 6 seconds. If the registered owner does not match who gave you the SIM, do not use it and contact the relevant operator. If you intend to use the SIM legitimately, the previous owner must physically accompany you to the operator franchise to complete a formal ownership transfer — their CNIC and biometric fingerprint are required. Using a SIM registered to someone else’s CNIC creates legal exposure for you as the user, even if the previous owner gave their verbal consent. Only formal biometric transfer at the franchise creates legal protection.

“Fresh SIM owner details” refers to the current, real-time registration record in PTA’s SVMS database — the most up-to-date information reflecting any recent ownership changes, biometric re-verifications, transfers, blocks, or network changes. When you use 667, you receive the live biometrically-authenticated owner record for the SIM in your phone at that exact moment. When you use 668 or cnic.sims.pk, you receive the current fresh count of all connections active against your CNIC — updated automatically by PTA whenever any change occurs at the operator level. There is no additional cost for fresh data — the official channels always return real-time information from the live database. Any third-party site claiming to offer “fresh” SIM data for a fee is selling either stolen or fabricated information.
