Quickstart: Port a phone number

Important

SMS and PSTN capabilities depend on the phone number you use and the country/region that you're operating within as determined by your Azure billing address. For more information, visit the Subscription eligibility documentation.

Get started with Azure Communication Services by porting your phone number into your Azure Communication Services resource. Toll-free and geographic numbers based in the United States are eligible for porting. For more information about phone number types, visit the phone number conceptual documentation.
