What is an IMEI and how to find it?

Woman Holding Phone

How to unlock your phone for any SIM card in 3 simple steps:

Step 1: Submit your IMEI

With our direct connection to all the manufacturer databases, we instantly detect your phone model and network using just your IMEI number. No other unlock company can do this.

Step 2: We whitelist your IMEI

We mark your IMEI as unlocked in your manufacturer's database which is then synced with your network. This typically takes a few hours. You can continue to use your phone as normal during this time.

Step 3: Unlock your phone

We'll then email you to inform you that phone is unlocked - some manufacturers such as Samsung will require you to enter a code whilst others such as Apple will unlock immediately over-the-air using your Wifi or mobile data connection.

Why choose IMEINow.com?

We have been helping over 2 millions customers to unlock their phones over the last 10+ years. This is why they chose us over the competition:

We have direct connections with the manufacturers

Type an IMEI into any other 'unlocking' website, and they'll probably ask you what model it is, what network it's on etc. Ask yourself - why would an unlocking company not know this information? It's because they are middle men. Here at IMEINow.com, we just need your IMEI number and we instantly know what network it's locked to and what model phone you have. Despite our name - we don't just unlock iPhones, either! We unlock ALL phones.

Because of this direct relationships with the manufacturers and most carriers worldwide - our prices can't be beaten, our unlocks are done twice the speed, and we can give you an accurate progress meter and timescale instead of saying 1-20 days.

We whitelist your IMEI officially with the networks

You can check your IMEI for free here where we will give you a full report on your phone such as the make, model and network.

Please keep in mind that no one (even your manufacturer) can unlock your phone except your carrier, and we work directly with your carrier to whitelist your IMEI number from their database. Once your phone is unlocked, all you need to do is connecting it to the internet and it'll be unlocked automatically - like magic.

* Note: Some phones (like Samsung, Huawei, HTC phones etc) will not support this method. Instead these manufacturers will ask you for the "Unlock Code". In this case, we'll send you the unlock code to your email with clear, simple, easy to follow instructions on how to enter this code in order to unlock your phone.

Full unlock guarantee - or your money back

Your phone will function exactly as if you had purchased a fully unlocked device from an Apple Store, instead of a subsidised one from the carrier.

If in the unlikely case your unlock doesn't work, all our unlocks come with a no-questions asked money back guarantee for your peace of mind.

Customer Testimonials

    • Easy, Fast, Cheap.

      I love them! Truly do! Bought an iPhone 11 online fairly cheaply as it was iCloud locked and thought I could save some money by buying it and then unlocking it myself. They saved me so much money will be using again and again from now on

      Peter Hoffman

    • Easy even for us old folk!

      Not being very tech savvy there was no way i was going to be able to use a jailbreak or some sort of elaborate software procedure to get an iCloud account removed ( I’m no spring chicken ) so thankfully they were able to do everything for me and I didn’t have to even send the iPhone to them. Took about 2 hours and when I emailed for an update on it they did reply pretty quickly, THANKS

      Margaret Jenkins

    • Thanks team

      Wasted so much time looking online for someone to get a second hand iPhone unlocked which was activation locked wish I had just found you people straight away! Straight forward service and now the iCloud account is gone, well done

      Tim Hinton

    • Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

      Found an old work iPhone in the back of my drawer but couldn’t remember the iCloud account login ,tried apple direct but I didn’t have the original receipt so they wouldn’t help. Found this site and just had to give the iPhones details and they managed to get the iCloud account removed. Big thumbs up

      Andrew Styler

    • Super fast!

      Only took them just over 1 hour to get my iPhone XR unlocked from the iCloud account that was not letting me use the iPhone.Would use again in future!

      Ellen Cox

    • Fast, Simple, Easy to Use!

      Excellent service - bought an iPhone 11 from eBay which was locked to someone else's iCloud account. Apple flat out refused to help me. No way was I going to jailbreak this handset and void my AppleCare warranty, this service removed the previous owners iCloud nice and quickly in under 48 hours, allowing to set it up with own! Thanks very much - ps any chance of some discount on the next order as my friend wants to do hers?

    • Big Surprise!

      Brought my Japanese Softbank iPhone 6 home & wanted to use it in the States, and learned the best reviews weren't lying - only took 10 hours to be able to use my phone with Verizon Wireless.

      Was surprised at the cost - apparently very competitive for this kind of service - but a bit hard to find. Look up the reviews for doctorunlock on trustpilot to see what I mean.

      In all, very thankful that I'm able to use my phone. The process was MUCH cheaper than having to buy a brand new phone.

    • Reliable and Perfect!! 100% Efective

      I bought an Iphone 6 on ebay. The seller said that was unlocked so i finished the transaction. Unfortunately, the phone was not unlocked and I can´t use the phone. I live in Chile so my options were really few...I contacted IphoneIMEI and I tried to use the first option to unlock it. But, the phone had another condition and it was necessary to use the second option. IphoneIMEI had me informed all the time through the tracking option. Tohour I received an email indicating that the process was completed. I put my simcard and just do it! The iphone is unlocked. I not trusted in this kind of site, but I have to eat my words. IphoneIMEI is an excellent an reliable site. Five Star. Use this site with total confidence. Thanks a lot for youe service.

    • No Worries

      I have an iPhone 6 that is still under contract from the previous owner. I thought I was stuck but these guys managed to get it unlocked in 8 working hours. I was nervous the whole time and checked the status 10 times a hour but this morning I got notification that it was successful. I turned on the phone and sure enough it was unlocked. I popped in my ATT SIM card and it worked perfectly. People kept telling me it will only work with international providers but that's not true. Both the old carrier (Tmobile) and my ATT carrier are USA providers and it works fine. I am so relieved and can't say enough good things about iPhoneIMEI.Net.
