The nationwide SIM card registration began on December 27, 2022. Have you registered your SIM yet? Here’s how you can register your Sun Cellular SIM card online through the registration link.
NOTE: Since Sun Cellular is under Smart Communications, the following steps are similar to that of registering your Smart and TNT SIM Card.
How to Register your Sun Cellular SIM for the SIM Card Registration Act?
Step 1. Visit the official Sun Cellular SIM Card Registration link at https://simreg.smart.com.ph/.
The same registration link is used for Smart and TNT subscribers. Make sure to only visit the official website and not spammy links sent by scammers either through email or text.
Step 2. Enter your mobile number, click the “Terms & Conditions” and “Privacy Notice” box, then tick the “SEND OTP” button.
The first step will verify if you own the number through a One-Time Pin (OTP).
If you missed the text, note that you have two minutes before you can ask to resend the OTP. So, be on standby.
Step 3. Enter the OTP and click the “VERIFY OTP” button.
If you enter the correct OTP, a “Success!” pop-up will show on the page. Click the “OK” button to continue.

Take a selfie in a well-lit room to ensure that the photo is clear.
Step 5: Click “Next” then fill-in the Address Information page.
Other than your address, the page also asks for alternate contact information so Smart can contact you in case of further validation. Here, you may use other SIM cards from other telcos, and your email.
Step 6: Click “Next” and take the time to check all your input in the Summary Page.
If all information is correct, you may proceed to the next step. Otherwise, click the “BACK” button to change any wrong information.
Step 7: Tick the first box (recommended) attesting that the provided information is true and correct.
The second box is optional. You may click on it if you allow Smart to send you promotional messages.

The reference number will serve as your certificate of registration.
Step 9: Receive a confirmation SMS verifying that your SIM is registered.

SIM Card Registration FAQs
Can I register multiple SIM cards?
YES. One user can register multiple SIM Cards. You just need to repeat the registration process for EACH SIM card through their respective portal links.
So, if you have TWO or more Smart SIM Cards, you must register each through the registration portal, repeating the process until you have registered all SIM under your name.
On the other hand, if you have different SIM cards from other telcos, such as Globe, DITO, TM and others, you must register each SIM card under your name through the different registration portal provided by the telcos.
