What exactly is a blacklist?

Blacklist is a database with a list of devices that have been lost, stolen or bills not paid. If a device is blacklisted, wireless carriers will not allow the device to connect to the network, even if a valid SIM card is used.

Blacklisted devices are verified by 15-day IMEI number. The blacklist is used in many countries and is published in an international database through the GSMA. We can be sure that a device blacklisted in the UK will not be able to be used in any of the participating countries, and vice versa.

To find out the blacklist status, you need to know the unique IMEI number of the device you want to check. If you are looking for a used device to buy, the first thing you should check is definitely the blacklist status.

1. In the first step, open the IMEI.info website and enter the IMEI number in the empty field, click CHECK.
   

   or simply enter the IMEI number in the brackets below and click Check BLACKLIST PRO.

2. At this point, you can find the specification of HUAWEI P30 Pro New Edition. Click on phone blacklist check – PRO to get blacklist status information.
