How Do I Find How Many SIMs Are Taken on My ID?

In today’s digital world, mobile numbers are linked to everything — from social media and online banking to e-commerce and biometric verification. But did you ever wonder how many SIM cards are registered under your ID? Whether you’re in Pakistan or India, knowing this can protect you from fraud, identity theft, or misuse of your documents.

In this guide, we’ll explain in simple and clear English how you can find the number of SIMs registered on your ID, how to check mobile numbers linked with your Aadhaar in India, and the best way to stay safe and updated using DB Center, one of the most popular platforms offering SIM ownership details in Pakistan.

Why Should You Check SIMs Registered on Your ID?

Checking how many SIM cards are registered with your ID is not just for curiosity. It’s important because:

• Someone may misuse your ID to get SIMs without your knowledge.

• SIMs linked to your ID can be used in criminal activity.

• You may reach the limit of allowed SIMs per ID (which is 5 in Pakistan).

• Telecom companies may block extra or unverified numbers.

• It ensures your Aadhaar or CNIC is not used illegally.

How to Check SIMs Registered on My ID in India

If you’re living in India, the process of checking SIM cards on your ID (linked with Aadhaar) is slightly different but also simple.

TAFCOP (Telecom Analytics for Fraud Management and Consumer Protection) is a government platform that helps users identify all mobile numbers registered with their Aadhaar.

Steps:

• Visit https://tafcop.dgtelecom.gov.in/

• You’ll see a list of all mobile numbers linked to your Aadhaar.

Linking mobile numbers with Aadhaar is mandatory in India. But sometimes, due to misuse or clerical errors, more than one number can get linked.

Here’s how to find out:

1. TAFCOP (Best Option)

As mentioned, TAFCOP lets you:

• Check how many numbers are linked to your Aadhaar.

• See details like the operator name and state.

2. UIDAI Services

You can also verify your mobile number through UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India):

• Enter your Aadhaar and mobile number

• It will confirm whether it’s linked or not

Note: UIDAI doesn’t show the list of all numbers — only verification status of the one you input.

If you find SIM cards that you didn’t authorize, act quickly:

In Pakistan:

• Visit the nearest franchise of the network showing the unauthorized SIM.

• Bring your original CNIC.

• Request for SIM blocking or disowning.

• File a complaint with the PTA if needed.
