Buying PTA approved mobiles in Karachi saves you from a blocked SIM later. At M Salman Mobile Zone, we tell you the PTA status of every phone before you pay. That way, you know exactly what you are buying.
What Does PTA Approved Mean?
In Pakistan, every phone must be registered with the PTA (Pakistan Telecommunication Authority). If a phone is not registered, local SIM cards may stop working on it. Because of this, a PTA approved phone is the safer choice for most buyers.
How to Check PTA Status
You can check any phone in under a minute:
- Dial *#06# to see the IMEI number of the phone
- Send the 15-digit IMEI by SMS to 8484
- Read the reply, which shows whether the phone is approved
- You can also check on the PTA DIRBS website
We are happy to help you do this check in the shop or on WhatsApp.
