    The key takeaways are that an MSISDN is the telephone number of a SIM card and identifies a mobile subscription. It is used for routing calls to mobile phones and follows the ITU E.164 numbering plan.

    An MSISDN is a number uniquely identifying a subscription in a GSM or UMTS mobile network. It is the telephone number of the SIM card in a mobile phone.

    An MSISDN is built from the country code, national destination code that identifies the network, and a subscriber number that is unique to that subscription.

    MSISDN

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    MSISDN is a number uniquely identifying a subscription in a GSM or a UMTS mobile network. Simply put, it is the telephone number of the SIM card in a mobile/cellular phone. This abbreviation has several interpretations, the most common one being "Mobile Subscriber Integrated Services Digital Network Number".[1] The MSISDN together with IMSI are two important numbers used for identifying a mobile subscriber. The latter identifies the SIM, i.e. the card inserted in to the mobile phone, while the former is used for routing calls to the subscriber. IMSI is often used as a key in the HLR ("subscriber database") and MSISDN is the number normally dialed to connect a call to the mobile phone. A SIM is uniquely associated to an IMSI, while the MSISDN can change in time (e.g. due to number portability), i.e. different MSISDNs can be associated to the SIM. The MSISDN follows the numbering plan defined in the ITU-T recommendation E.164.

    Abbreviation
    Depending on source or standardization body, the abbreviation MSISDN can be written out in several different ways. These are today the most widespread and common in use.

    MSISDN Format
    An MSISDN is limited to 15 digits, prefixes not included (e.g., 00 prefixes an international MSISDN when dialing from Sweden). MSISDN - Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Number In GSM and its variant DCS 1800, MSISDN is built up as
    MSISDN = CC + NDC + SN CC = Country Code NDC = National Destination Code, identifies one or part of a PLMN SN = Subscriber Number

    In the GSM variant PCS 1900, MSISDN is built up as


    MSISDN = CC + NPA + SN CC = Country Code NPA = Number Planning Area SN = Subscriber Number

    Example
    MSISDN: 380561234567 CC 380 NDC 56 Ukraine Dnipropetrovsk

    SN 1234567 Subscriber's number For further information on the MSISDN format, see the ITU-T specification E.164.
