Idaho does NOT maintain a separate state Do Not Call list — the federal National DNC Registry is the only list telemarketers must scrub against. Idaho DOES require telemarketer registration with the state at least 10 days before transacting business. Idaho defines registrants as "telephone solicitors" or "telephone soliciting businesses." Exemptions exist for established business relationships, prior permission/inquiry, and B2B calls. Enforcement is handled through the Idaho Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division. First 5 area codes are free through the FTC portal.
