Requirements for Calling US and Canada Numbers (+1 Country Code)

Issue 

Effective August 3, 2026, All Twilio accounts will need a Primary Compliance Profile to make outbound calls to +1 numbers.

 

Product

Programmable Voice

 

Cause

To maintain trust in the communications ecosystem and comply with regulatory and carrier obligations, Twilio requires additional verification for outbound calls to US and Canadian phone numbers.

These measures help protect against fraudulent and phishing-related voice activity, ensuring a safer experience for you.

 

Resolution

For Customers in the US and Canada

  1. Log in to your Twilio Console.
  2. Create and submit your Business or Individual Primary Compliance Profile for approval.
  3. Allow up to 7 business days for review and verification.
  4. You’ll receive an email once your profile is approved.


For Customers Outside the US and Canada

  1. Log in to your Twilio Console.
  2. Create and submit your Business Primary Compliance Profile for approval.
  3. Allow up to 7 business days for review and verification.
  4. You’ll receive an email once your profile is approved.

Note: Twilio Support and Operations teams cannot manually remove this restriction. An approved Business Profile is required.
