Update: please prepare the following information below and fill out the form: Porting Form


Due to carrier network freezes, porting activities for all requests will be slowed during the winter holiday season. We will continue to accept and process new requests as bandwidth allows. 
However, no activations will be scheduled for the following period:
US/Canada: activations will be halted from December 21, 2023 until January 3, 2024
International: activations will be halted from December 15, 2023 until January 3, 2024
Dec 8th is the last day to submit port requests with hopes to get the numbers ported this year

FAQs:


1. My Twilio number took forever to port over, what's going on?

Sometimes it might be that those Twilio numbers are already with another Twilio project. So we just need to move the Twilio number once the client provides the losing Account SID.
