Blacklistef imei

I've bought an iPad Pro 9,7 in 2016 from an official reseller, but now I've found that an imei number is blacklisted as stolen device. Can it be a mistake and what should I do?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

You will need to return the iPad to the retailer from which you purchased the iPad - and have the iPad exchanged. You’ll not be able to lift the IMEI block yourself.


Assuming that you recently purchased the iPad from Apple, or an Apple Authorised Retailer, you should have no difficulties.
