  • Verify the regulatory requirements for the selected country and number type. See the full list at DIDWW Phone Number Porting .

  • Create or select a valid Identity & Address for the chosen country and number type to meet portability compliance requirements. See Create New Identity & Address.

  • Ensure you have the current carrier account number, the latest invoice, and any additional documents.

Note

To avoid service interruption when porting is completed, create a Configuration Profile in advance.
