What types of phone number can I get in Peru?

Telappliant can supply local (geographic) numbers, toll-free numbers and mobile-range numbers in Peru. 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 Peru 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 Peru number to Telappliant?

Yes - number portability is supported in Peru. 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 make outbound calls showing a Peru number as caller ID?

Yes. Outbound calling is supported in Peru, so calls you place can present your Peru number as the caller ID - useful when local recipients are more likely to answer a familiar number.

Can I send and receive SMS on a Peru number?

Two-way SMS isn't available on Peru numbers through our carriers - these are voice numbers. If you need texting into Peru, ask us about messaging routes as a separate service.

Can a Peru number be used to call emergency services?

Emergency calling is supported on Peru 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 Peru 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 Peru 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 Peru

1
Choose your Peru number type and activate
Pick the number type you need - local, toll-free, mobile-range numbers are shown as available in Peru. 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 Peru number (optional)
Porting is supported in Peru. 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.
