In order to continue delivering a secure service, The GSMA have taken the decision to update and upgrade our TAC Allocation certificate. From 20 March 2024, the certificate one receives for allocating new TAC will look different.

This new iteration is more secure and it has been designed to be more aligned with the updated GSMA branding.

This is an important announcement for the mobile ecosystem and allows us to re-iterate the importance of the TAC certificate. As a reminder, TAC can only be allocated by the GSMA through our appointed reporting bodies and is required for all 3GPP-compatible equipment types worldwide. The certificate adds further authority to the TAC Allocation process.

For a preview of what the new design will look like, please click here.

We have reached out directly to all those within the immediate TAC ecosystem, to notify them of this upcoming change, and have stated that from 20 March 2024, this new certificate will be the only valid form of proof for new TAC allocated on or after 20 March 2024.
