## Porting Process Overview

1. **Submit Your Porting Request**\
   Submit your request in the CloudTalk Dashboard under **Numbers > Port existing number**.

2. **Initial Review**\
   The CloudTalk team will verify number portability and confirm the next steps.

3. **Documentation Collection**\
   Complete and sign the LOA (Letter of Authorization), and provide a recent invoice from your current telecom provider.

4. **Submission to Carrier**\
   CloudTalk submits your request to our partner carrier, who then forwards it to your current provider.

5. **Approval or Rejection**

   * If **approved**, the CloudTalk team will confirm the porting date (typically 2–4 business days in advance).

   * If **rejected**, the Cloudtalk team will share the reason and guide you on how to correct and resubmit the request.

## Common Rejection Reasons

| **Issue** | **How to Fix** |
| - | - |
| **Missing or incorrect CIF/NIF** | Ensure the company’s CIF or individual’s NIF is valid and matches official legal records |
| **LOA not signed or incomplete** | Fill out all fields and make sure the LOA is digitally signed by the correct person |
| **LOA signed by an unauthorized person** | Only the legal account holder or an authorized representative should sign the LOA |
| **Account details don’t match provider records** | Double-check name, address, and number(s) against your current provider’s records |
| **Invoice is older than 30 days** | Provide a recent invoice dated within the last 30 days |
| **Invoice doesn’t show the number(s)** | Use a billing document that clearly lists the number(s) you want to port |
| **Number is inactive or suspended** | The number must remain active throughout the porting process |
| **Outstanding balance with current provider** | Settle any unpaid bills with your provider before submitting your port request |
| **Address mismatch** | The address on the LOA must match the address your provider has on file |
| **Number belongs to a non-portable range/block** | Some number blocks can’t be split -confirm with your provider before submitting the request |
| **Porting blocked due to provider restrictions** | Some providers restrict porting due to contract terms or internal policies - confirm before starting |
