A registration method applied in a terminal device includes sending a first request, where the first request is used to request to register in a first cell, receiving a first message, where the first message is used to indicate that the terminal device is successfully registered in the first cell, when the first message does not carry a first network slice identifier and the terminal device cannot establish a protocol data unit (PDU) session on a first network slice corresponding to the first network slice identifier, sending a second request, where the second request is used to request to register in a second cell, receiving a second message, where the second message carries a second network slice identifier, and establishing the PDU session on a second network slice corresponding to the second network slice identifier.
