This will be a continuation of the recently conducted remote SIM registration held at Moalboal, Cebu, on January 25.

The NTC7, together with Globe, Smart, and DITO, will hold a facilitated SIM registration in the municipalities of Oslob on Feb. 2 and in  Malabuyoc on Feb. 3.

According to NTC7, the said local government units have encouraged residents who are keypad phone users and those who have no access to internet connectivity to avail themselves of the services of the remote SIM registration to be held from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The mandatory registration of SIM cards is in compliance with Republic 11934, also known as the "SIM Registration Act," signed by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in October 2022. (RGC/PIA7 Cebu)
