While the US National Do Not Call Registry is widely known, many other countries have implemented similar systems. The specifics of these registries, including their scope, exemptions, and enforcement mechanisms, vary significantly.


Australia (Do Not Call Register): The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) maintains the Do Not Call Register. It covers telemarketing calls and faxes. Most telemarketing calls are prohibited, but exceptions exist for registered charities, educational institutions, government bodies, and political parties. There are also specific rules around existing business slovenia phone number list relationships.
Canada (National Do Not Call List - NDNCL): Administered by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). It covers telemarketing calls from telemarketers in Canada. Exemptions include political parties, charities, opinion polling firms, and companies with an existing business relationship.
United Kingdom (Telephone Preference Service - TPS and Corporate Telephone Preference Service - CTPS):
TPS: For individual consumers. Once a number is registered, it is illegal for organizations to make unsolicited live sales and marketing calls to that number.
