Overview
- The registry counted 20,432,654 linked mobile lines as of March 8, equal to 14.18% of the market, according to regulator data.
- At the current pace, more than 954,000 registrations per day would be needed to finish by June 30, with unregistered lines subject to suspension starting July 1 but still able to place emergency calls.
- Regulators say postpaid contracts had already tied about 26.666 million lines to identities before this push, leaving most progress to make on prepaid accounts.
- Prepaid lines represent roughly 85% of the market—about 125 million numbers—where analysts warn of friction and a higher risk of customer abandonment during linking.
- Operators, not a central database, will store CURP/ID records for up to 10 lines per user in compliance with Mexico’s data‑protection law.
