 We are using nRF9160. 
 1. Is the MAC id unique for each chip? 
 2. What is the AT command to read MAC id of nRF9160?

&lt;p&gt;Are you using a standalone nRF9160 SoC or working with a nRF9160DK or THingy:91?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t think there is a specific MAC id , but&amp;nbsp;a&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;unique identification for nRF9160 is typically provided by the IMEI or a device UUID, both of which are unique per device.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;If what you mean is the UUID, then please take a look at this:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-cloud/page/Devices/Properties/DeviceId.html"&gt;https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-cloud/page/Devices/Properties/DeviceId.html&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Also, in order to read the IMEI, you could use the AT+CGSN command and you can find more related AT commands from the documentation:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://docs-be.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ref_at_commands/attach/nrf9160_at_commands_v2.5.pdf?_LANG=enus"&gt;https://docs-be.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ref_at_commands/attach/nrf9160_at_commands_v2.5.pdf?_LANG=enus&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
