## Porting requirements

- The full list of phone numbers you want to port including the country code.
- The LOA must be signed by the person who has administrative rights on the account with the current carrier.
- SIRET code is mandatory (14 digit number).
- Toll-free only requirement: Additional document "National format change request" is required for numbers from ranges: 33 800 90 XXXX, 33 800 91 XXXX and 33 800 99 XXXX.

## Possible port rejection reasons

While we do our best to prevent it, it does sometimes happen that a port request is rejected. The most common rejection reasons are noted below. As you can see, details matter and this is why we ask you to triple-check all the information you provided before submitting your port request.

- Incorrect end user name
- Incorrect service address
- Requested number is associated with another range of numbers (that are not porting)
- Number is not active

## Porting checklist

- LOA is filled out, dated, and signed.
- Latest invoice from current carrier.
- All numbers are active with your current carrier.
- All numbers in your account are porting over or you’ve disassociated them from the other numbers in your account with your current provider.
- You’ve provided a desired port date in compliance with the SLT (*Dialpad will do its best to meet this date but there is no guarantee.) If no date is provided we will port the numbers ASAP.

## Cost

We charge a one-time porting fee for France. For more information please reach out to [sales@dialpad.com](mailto:sales@dialpad.com).
