What types of phone number can I get in Brazil?

Telappliant can supply local (geographic) numbers, toll-free numbers and mobile-range numbers in Brazil. Availability by area code is confirmed when we quote, because individual number ranges can sell out or be reserved by the local regulator.

How many calls can I take at the same time on a Brazil number?

Concurrency comes from the channels on your VoIP account, not from the number itself. Every account starts with 2 channels, which means 2 simultaneous calls across all your numbers. Extra channels are added at £5 each, so a 10-person support team taking 6 calls at once would need 6 channels. Numbers themselves are unlimited in quantity - you only pay for the concurrency you need.

Can I port my existing Brazil number to Telappliant?

Yes - number portability is supported in Brazil. You keep your existing number and we handle the transfer with the losing carrier. You'll need a recent bill and a letter of authority; we'll tell you exactly what the local carrier requires before the port starts.

Can I send and receive SMS on a Brazil number?

Two-way SMS is available in Brazil, so the number can send and receive text messages as well as voice calls. Alphanumeric sender IDs (your brand name in place of a number) are also supported.

Can a Brazil number be used to call emergency services?

Emergency calling is supported on Brazil numbers, subject to registering a valid service address so the call routes to the right emergency centre. Keep that address up to date if you move.

What do I need to provide to activate a Brazil number?

Most countries require proof of identity for the account holder and, for local numbers, an address - sometimes one within the number's area. Any rules specific to Brazil are listed in the service restrictions on this page. Telappliant handles the carrier-side paperwork; we'll ask you only for what the regulator requires.

How to get a number in Brazil

1
Choose your Brazil number type and activate
Pick the number type you need - local, toll-free, mobile-range numbers are shown as available in Brazil. Telappliant handles the carrier-side paperwork; where the local regulator requires it you'll be asked to supply proof of identity and a valid address, which we submit on your behalf before the number is activated.
2
Port an existing Brazil number (optional)
Porting is supported in Brazil. Send us your current provider details and a recent bill, and we'll run the port request with the losing carrier while your existing service stays live until cutover.
3
Set up channels and route your calls
Your VoIP account comes with 2 channels, which means 2 simultaneous calls across all of your numbers. Add extra channels at £5 each to raise concurrency. Then point the number at your phone system - SIP trunk, softphone or 3CX - and set your outbound caller ID.
