Device IMEI Database and Type Allocation Codes (TAC)

This dataset provides a comprehensive registry of mobile device IMEIs, mapping each to its Type Allocation Code (TAC), manufacturer, model, and technical capabilities such as LTE, VoLTE, and 5G support. It includes blacklist/whitelist status, stolen device reporting, and EIR blocking for regulatory and security purposes, making it invaluable for telecom operators, fraud prevention, and device tracking.

Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 100 rows came out of a blueprint — 25 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • IMEI 15-digit identifier: TAC (8 digits) + serial number (6 digits) + check digit
  • TAC (Type Allocation Code) mapping to manufacturer and device model
  • Device capabilities: 2G/3G/4G/5G support, frequency bands, VoLTE/VoWi-Fi
  • Device category: smartphone, feature phone, tablet, IoT module, hotspot
  • Operating system: iOS, Android, KaiOS with version
  • EIR (Equipment Identity Register): whitelist (allowed), greylist, blacklist (blocked)
  • Stolen/lost device blocking with cross-operator blacklist sharing
  • IMEI validation: check digit calculation, duplicate IMEI detection (cloning)
