Does CoreESIM usage in Peru necessitate IMEI registration of my device?

Updated April 22, 2026

CoreESIM confirms that IMEI registration is not required for its services in Peru. Peruvian telecommunications regulations mandate IMEI registration with a passport for locally purchased SIM cards, a measure intended to combat device theft. However, CoreESIM operates as an international roaming service. As such, your device is recognized as a roaming entity, exempting it from the local IMEI registration requirement. This provides a streamlined activation process compared to acquiring a domestic SIM from carriers like Claro Peru or Movistar Peru.
