Environment

Procedure

  1. Open the checklist for your international number from Communications › Numbers & senders › Overview by starting a number purchase for a country that requires an address.
  2. Expand the Regulatory compliance address task. The Complete purchase of number wizard opens on the Create or select an address step.
  3. Answer Which address would you like to use?
  4. To reuse a saved address, select An existing address and pick it from Select an address to use.
  5. If you have no saved addresses, use Create new address and enter the address details.
  6. Select Next to apply the address.
  7. Back on the checklist, the address task shows Complete and you can continue to Select and buy number.

 

Additional Information

  • Addresses must satisfy the destination country's rules, so an address saved for one country may not be accepted for a number in another.
  • Some countries do not require an address at all, if the task does not appear on your checklist, it is not needed for that number.
