To avoid confusion the database of GSM Association was renamed to IMEI Database - IMEI DB [1] (it was in 2003-2008, see “Document History” at IMEI Database File Format Specification [2]). Also sometimes a common IMEI database for several EIRs is called SEIR (Shared EIR). In each country, the CEIR can interact with IMEI DB differently.

The Type Allocation Code (TAC) is the initial eight-digit portion of the 15-digit IMEI and 16-digit IMEISV codes used to uniquely identify wireless devices.. The Type Allocation Code identifies a particular model (and often revision) of wireless telephone for use on a GSM, UMTS, LTE, 5G NR, iDEN, Iridium or other IMEI-employing wireless network.
However, a phone's IMEI may be easy to change with special tools. [10] [better source needed] In addition, IMEI is an un-authenticated mobile identifier (as opposed to IMSI, which is routinely authenticated by home and serving mobile networks.) Using a spoofed IMEI can thwart some efforts to track handsets, or target handsets for lawful intercept.
For instance, Apple and LG normally use RR=35 which is allocated by BABT while Chinese brands such as Huawei use two RR=86 IMEIs allocated by TAF for 3GPP networks alongside a distinct RR=99 decimal or RR=A0 hexadecimal MEID for 3GPP2 networks. Every IMEI can also be used as an MEID in CDMA devices (as well as in single-mode devices designed ...
The "Reporting Body Identifier" is also known as the Regional Code in the CDMA context. The International Mobile Station Equipment Identity and Mobile Equipment Identifier (MEID) structures are superficially the same, except that the first two digits must be decimal for an IMEI, and must be hexadecimal for an MEID.
