Brazil: IoT and M2M domestic roaming review
Under reviewBR · Roaming
M2M/IoT devices sit inside Anatel's national-roaming offer framework (PGMC, Resolution 783/2025, Art. 66), and today the 90-consecutive-day permanent-roaming limit applies to them. Anatel is reviewing how that limit fits M2M/IoT through Call for Input No. 3 on M2M and IoT connectivity, which asks how these devices coexist with the permanent-roaming ban. Until Anatel publishes a decision the current rule stands; device pages promise no date.
Contran Resolution 996/2023 classifies e-bikes and similar vehicles in Brazil. Smart-mobility pages route bicycles, e-bikes, scooters and sharing fleets by this classification.

Brazil: PGMC domestic permanent roaming
In forceBR · Roaming
Under the PGMC (Anatel Resolution 783/2025, Art. 66 §4), permanent roaming is prohibited: camping outside the service area for more than 90 consecutive calendar days, for people and M2M/IoT devices alike. The rule governs domestic roaming between Brazilian operators.
Brazil's ECA Digital (Law 15.211/2025, in force since March 2026) sets the rules for children's data in digital environments, enforced by ANPD. Applicability to a given messaging or device flow is confirmed with your counsel; the tracker records the reference, not the advice.
Bill 4.635/2024 would extend Fistel-fee relief on M2M stations to 31 December 2030. Its signing status is pending verification; cost explainers do not assume the relief.
No verified Anatel text on foreign-SIM permanent roaming yet; the published PGMC framework governs national roaming between Brazilian operators. Long-lived devices use a local Brazilian profile.
Anatel's General Numbering Regulation (Resolution 709/2019) governs access-code allocation in Brazil. The short-code path for a given sender is confirmed per sender at quote time.
Anatel Ato 14430/2024 phases 3G-only mobile phones out of certification and requires VoLTE with SMS over IMS; whether the same treatment covers IoT modules is pending verification. Device results name the certification basis or say unknown.
Chile's Subtel governs terminal homologation and IMEI checks through its Multibanda framework. Rules for IoT deployments are still being researched; pages state only confirmed rules.
Colombia's CRC Resolution 7684 governs messaging sender registration. Registration bodies, lead times and sender types are confirmed per sender at quote time.

Mexico: CRT registration enforcement
Under reviewMX · SIM registration
Mexico's CRT Lineamientos require mobile lines to be linked to an identified holder, with unlinked lines disabled after the transitory schedule. How enforcement proceeds and which path legal entities follow are under review; device and line pages state only what the published rules confirm.
Mexico requires registration of lines with voice, SMS or VoIP capability. Data-only profiles with no voice, SMS or VoIP capability are outside the scheme (Article 1); this is not legal advice. The CURP-based registration schedule and the legal-entity path remain under review.
Peru's OSIPTEL runs RENTESEG for equipment and line registration. IMEI and line-registration rules for IoT deployments are still being researched; pages state only confirmed rules.
