What means TAC?
Type Allocation Code, short TAC, is the initial eight-digit portion of the serial number (IMEI) of wireless devices. The TAC can be used to uniquely identifiy a device brand and model.
To get the TAC of your device, just enter the key code *#06# and read the initial six to eight digits from IMEI displayed on the screen.
What is this service good for?
In case you are going to buy a phone, use this database to check the IMEI for manipulation or fake devices. If the TAC does not match to the phone model, it can be stolen and manipulated or even a counterfeit device.

IMEI example:
Every 3GPP device requires a unique IMEI number identyfying brand owner and model. Each device model must be allocated a unique TAC. A new TAC is requierd for every 1 million units produced. Single transceivers or single connection devices require one IMEI, each parallel connection requires a unique IMEI and different separate transceivers require unique TACs.
