It starts with the 3-digit mobile country code (MCC) and the 2- or 3-digit mobile network code (MNC) of the home network, followed by the mobile subscription identification number (MSIN). It has at most 15 digits; most IMSIs have 15, and some older ones have 14. - Personal data (PII): yes - Categories: Telecommunications (telecom), Personally identifiable information (pii) - Countries: global - Languages: Common to most languages (common) - Classification: identifier ## Detection Regular expression (Python `re`): ``` ^\d{14,15}$ ``` ## Examples - `310150123456789` — United States; MCC 310, MNC 150, MSIN 123456789 (python-stdnum documentation) - `429011234567890` — Nepal; MCC 429, MNC 01 (python-stdnum documentation) - `460001357924680` — China; MCC 460, MNC 00, MSIN 1357924680 (Wikipedia) - `3101501234567890` (invalid example) — 16 digits, longer than an IMSI can be - `310-150-123456789` (invalid example) — Separators are not used ## Mappings - stdnum: `imsi` ## Metacrafter rules 2 rules: 1 match the field name, 1 match values. - `imsifield` (field, `common/telecom.yaml`) - `imsivalue` (data, `common/telecom.yaml`) ## Supported by tools - `dataprep` - `greatexpectations` - `metacrafter` - `pythonstdnum` ## Translations - ru: Международный идентификатор мобильного абонента (IMSI): Номер, записанный на SIM-карте и идентифицирующий подписку в мобильной сети (3GPP TS 23.003, МСЭ-Т E.212). Начинается с 3-значного мобильного кода страны (MCC) и 2- или 3-значного кода сети (MNC), за которыми следует номер абонента (MSIN).
