ATIS 0300050(2024-01)

The assignment practices detailed in these CIC Assignment Guidelines apply to the assignment of CICs made directly by North American Numbering Plan Administration (NANPA) to a specific entity. (See Section 2.2 for CIC application procedures). Therefore, the maximum number of CICs an entity may be assigned under these CIC Assignment Guidelines pertains to the number of CICs the CIC Administrator may directly assign to that entity. Accordingly, codes obtained via means other than direct assignment by the NANPA are outside the scope of these CIC Assignment Guidelines and hence, are not included in the maximum code assignment limits. The requirements specified in these CIC Assignment Guidelines will apply to all CICs (e.g., the access and usage requirements for retaining CICs) regardless of the manner through which an entity obtained a code.
