International mobile equipment identifier. On a GSM phone it provides you with a unique identity (kind of like a social security number or a voter ID card) not shared by any phone anywhere in the world. It can be used to identify the make and model of the phone. If you block the IMEI number from your network then that phone cannot access it no matter what. Its usually useful in case your phone gets stolen so you can call up your network provider and ask then to blacklist/block your phone. That way no one can make any calls/send texts from it.
