Maryland Do-Not-Call List
State DNC registry requirements for Maryland
You must scrub against BOTH the federal National DNC Registry AND the Maryland state DNC list before making calls in this state. Scrubbing only the federal list is not sufficient.
Maryland Do Not Call Registry
Covers
Maryland maintains its own state Do Not Call Registry where consumers can register by calling 1-888-795-0013 or visiting donotcall.maryland.gov. Consumers can specify which types of calls they wish to block (e.g., companies they haven't done business with, political solicitations). There is NO state telemarketer registration requirement or fee in Maryland. The "Stop the Spam Calls Act of 2023" (effective January 1, 2024) strengthened protections. Telemarketers must display caller ID, cannot block it, and cannot make pre-recorded sales calls (robocalls) without prior written consent. Enforcement: Maryland AG's Office. Telemarketers must scrub against BOTH the Maryland registry and the federal NDNC.
Federal National DNC Registry (Always Required)
You must scrub the federal list regardless of whether Maryland has its own list. There is no opt-out from federal DNC compliance.
