What are SIM owner details?
SIM owner details are the registration records linked to every active SIM card in Pakistan. When a SIM is issued, the buyer’s CNIC number, full name, and operator are tied to national SIM registration and matched through biometric verification.
These records help confirm how many SIMs sit under one CNIC, which network each connection belongs to, whether biometric verification is complete, and whether a SIM is active, suspended, or blocked.
- Owner’s full name: As printed on the CNIC.
- 13-digit CNIC number: The main identity key used for SIM registration lookup.
- Mobile network: Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, SCO, or ONIC.
- SIM count: Total number of SIMs registered on that CNIC.
- Biometric verification status: Verified, Pending, or Failed.
- SIM status: Active, Suspended, or Blocked.
Biometric verification
Every SIM must be biometrically verified at an authorised franchise. A SIM that fails verification or remains unverified can be blocked automatically.
Can you check someone else’s SIM owner details by CNIC?
No. Public users cannot enter a random phone number and retrieve the owner’s name or CNIC through any official tool. Legal access to subscriber identity data is restricted, and official public services are limited to self-check and network identification functions.
What you can legally do
- Check which SIMs are registered on your own CNIC.
- Identify which network a number belongs to through SMS lookup methods.
- Check biometric status of a SIM in your possession.
- Report suspicious or unauthorised numbers through official complaint channels.
What you should not do
- Use third-party apps or websites claiming to show a mobile owner’s CNIC or full name.
- Publish, sell, or share any unauthorised SIM registration data.
- Trust fake “SIM database” tools that expose personal records.
- Let others use a SIM registered in your own name without proper control.
How to check SIM owner details using your CNIC
These are the practical methods most users need: SMS CNIC check, online CNIC portal, network identification, and MNP confirmation after porting.
SMS your CNIC to 668
Open your SMS app, type your 13-digit CNIC without dashes, and send it to 668. You receive the number of SIMs registered against your CNIC, usually broken down by network.
Cost: Rs. 2 + tax per SMS.
Use the online CNIC portal
Visit cnic.sims.pk, enter your 13-digit CNIC, complete the CAPTCHA, and submit. The page displays the count of SIMs registered on your CNIC by network.
Free and useful for users in Pakistan or abroad.
Check which network a number belongs to
Type the mobile number with the 0 prefix and send it to 667. This identifies the network only, not the owner.
Confirm current network after porting
Because mobile number portability can change the live operator, send: N [space] 03XXXXXXXXX to 76367 to confirm the current network.
Check your biometric status
Operators may require re-verification from time to time. If a SIM is not verified, service can be affected or suspended until biometrics are completed again.
| Network | BVS check |
|---|---|
| Jazz | SMS 13-digit CNIC to 6001 |
| Telenor | SMS 13-digit CNIC to 7751 |
| Zong | Send V to 7911 |
| Ufone | Send V to 7911 |
| SCO | Call 321 |
| ONIC | Check in the ONIC app |
If status is not verified
Visit the relevant franchise with your original CNIC and request biometric re-verification. Photocopies are generally not enough when identity confirmation is required.
- Carry your original CNIC.
- Visit the operator’s authorised franchise or support center.
- Ask for biometric verification or re-verification.
- Confirm status before leaving the branch.
Per-network SIM details
Use this quick reference if you need a helpline, self-check route, or mobile app for a specific operator.
| Network | Helpline | USSD / self-check | App |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jazz | 111 | *321# | My Jazz |
| Zong | 310 | SMS CNIC to 310 | My Zong |
| Telenor | 345 | *345# | My Telenor |
| Ufone | 333 | *333# | My Ufone |
| SCO | 321 (1236 support) | Call 321 | — |
| ONIC | App-based | *345# | ONIC |
Pakistani mobile number prefix guide
Prefixes can help identify the original network, but portability means the current network may be different. Treat this as a clue, not final confirmation.
| Prefix range | Original network |
|---|---|
| 0300 – 0309 | Jazz (Mobilink) |
| 0310 – 0319, 0360 – 0365 | Zong |
| 0320 – 0329, 0340 – 0349 | Telenor |
| 0330 – 0339 | Ufone |
| 0355 – 0357 | SCO |
| 037X | ONIC |
Always verify live network
After MNP porting, a number may no longer belong to the network suggested by its prefix. Use 667 or 76367 before filing a complaint or visiting a franchise.
- 667 helps identify the network.
- 76367 confirms the current network after porting.
- Prefix alone should never be your final proof.
How many SIMs can one CNIC hold?
A single CNIC can hold a maximum of 8 SIMs across all networks combined. This is commonly understood as 5 voice SIMs plus 3 data-only SIMs.
PTA rules every Pakistani should know
- Maximum limit: 8 SIMs per CNIC across all networks combined.
- Biometric verification: Every SIM must be issued through authorised fingerprint verification.
- Inactivity risk: Long-inactive SIMs may be deactivated and later reissued.
- Fraud control: Fraudulently registered or crime-linked SIMs can be blocked.
- Re-verification campaigns: Existing users may be asked to re-verify biometrically.
- Overseas access: Online CNIC audit can still help you review your SIM footprint from abroad.
What to do if you find an unauthorised SIM on your CNIC
If you find a SIM you never purchased, treat it as a same-day issue. Fast documentation and complaint handling reduce the risk of fraud, identity misuse, or mobile wallet abuse.
Checking from outside Pakistan
Overseas Pakistanis can still audit SIM registrations tied to their CNIC or NICOP using the online route.
- Open the CNIC portal in any browser.
- Enter your 13-digit CNIC or NICOP number.
- Complete the CAPTCHA and submit.
- Review operator-wise SIM counts on your identity.
Blocking an unauthorised SIM while abroad
If immediate travel is not possible, use official complaint channels or authorise a family member in Pakistan with a signed authority letter and CNIC copy where needed.
- Use the complaint portal or helpline first.
- Prepare identity proof and screenshots.
- Coordinate with the relevant network operator.
SIM details for deceased family members
If a deceased relative still has active SIMs registered on their CNIC, those numbers should not be left unattended. They may need to be blocked or formally transferred with documentation.
- Visit the relevant franchise with the deceased person’s original CNIC and death certificate.
- Request SIM block or transfer, depending on operator policy and eligibility.
- Make sure no active mobile number remains exposed to misuse.
DIRBS and device blocking
DIRBS connects device registration and blocking with handset-level identity such as IMEI status. This matters because a stolen device and a stolen SIM create two different risks.
- A stolen handset can still be used if only the SIM issue is addressed.
- Blocking the device helps stop network use even if another SIM is inserted.
- SIM and device controls work best together in theft cases.
SIM data and IMEI work together
In practical terms, SIM registration tells you who a number is tied to, while device registration helps determine whether the handset itself can continue connecting to the network.
Is it legal to check SIM details in Pakistan?
Checking SIMs on your own CNIC through official channels is legal and sensible. What crosses the line is accessing another person’s SIM registration data without authorisation, publishing it, buying it, or using illegal “database lookup” tools.
Allowed
- Self-checking your CNIC-linked SIM count.
- Checking which operator a number belongs to.
- Verifying biometric status for your own SIM.
- Filing complaints for unauthorised registrations.
Not allowed
- Accessing or sharing another person’s subscriber identity data without authority.
- Using fake SIM owner lookup services.
- Selling or distributing private SIM records.
- Allowing uncontrolled use of a SIM issued in your own name.
