The TAC is the first 8 digits of the 15-digit IMEI number. It identifies the device's make and model, and the company that manufactured it. TAC codes are essential for various purposes, such as tracking lost or stolen devices, ensuring compatibility with mobile networks, and facilitating device management and inventory by network operators and manufacturers. Each TAC is assigned by the GSMA to ensure global uniqueness and consistency. Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) is responsible for issuing and regulating TAC codes.
