Maryland robocall law at a glance
The federal TCPA protects everyone in Maryland. Here’s how it works with the state’s own rules.
Two laws protect Maryland residents
A federal law covers everyone — and Maryland’s own rules can add to it.
The TCPA
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act — the nationwide law behind every claim.
- Protects everyone in Maryland, no matter the state rules.
- Bars autodialed or prerecorded calls and texts to your cell without consent.
- $500–$1,500 per call, stacking with every violation.
- You can sue personally — you don’t wait on the government.
Maryland Telephone Solicitations Act / Stop the Spam Calls Act of 2023 (Md. Code, Com. Law §§ 14-2201 et seq.)
How Maryland adds to your protection.
- Calling hours: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m..
- Do Not Call: Uses the national registry.
- Applies on top of the federal TCPA — sometimes with extra penalties.
How the law works in Maryland
If you live in Maryland and robocalls or telemarketing texts keep coming, federal law protects you. The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is the main federal robocall law. It limits autodialed calls, prerecorded or “robo” voice messages, and marketing texts sent without your permission. The TCPA lets you recover $500 to $1,500 for every illegal call or text, and because the penalty is per call, the amounts add up fast when a company contacts you again and again.
Maryland added a strong state law in the Maryland Telephone Solicitations Act, expanded by the Stop the Spam Calls Act of 2023 (Md. Code, Com. Law §§ 14-2201 et seq.), effective January 1, 2024. It requires prior express written consent for many automated solicitation calls and texts, limits telephone solicitations to the hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., tighter than the federal 9 p.m. cutoff, and caps how many solicitation calls about the same subject can reach you in a 24-hour period. Maryland relies on the National Do Not Call Registry rather than a separate state list, so registering at donotcall.gov is the key step.

Maryland robocall FAQs
Can I sue for robocalls in Maryland?
Yes. The federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) lets Maryland residents sue for illegal robocalls, prerecorded messages, and spam texts, with damages of $500 to $1,500 per call. Maryland’s Stop the Spam Calls Act of 2023 may add to those rights. A free review can tell you whether your calls qualify.
What is Maryland’s Stop the Spam Calls Act?
The Stop the Spam Calls Act of 2023 expanded the Maryland Telephone Solicitations Act, effective January 1, 2024. It requires prior express written consent for many automated solicitation calls and texts, limits calling hours to 8 a.m. through 8 p.m., and caps repeated solicitation calls about the same subject within a 24-hour period. It works alongside the federal TCPA.
What are Maryland’s calling hours?
Under Maryland’s Telephone Solicitations Act, telephone solicitations are limited to the hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., tighter than the federal 9 p.m. limit. A solicitation call outside that window may break state law and is worth documenting.
