How can we Help?

You can buy phone numbers from the United States and Canada directly from Talkdesk’s interface without having to provide a proof of address or identity.

For all other countries, due to legal regulations, if you wish to purchase phone numbers, you will need to contact our team at phonenumbers@talkdesk.com and provide the required documentation (Proof of Address and Proof of Identity). In some cases, this includes a proof of address that matches the location of the phone number. We will then purchase the phone number on your behalf and use this address in the event that we are contacted by the regulatory bodies.

When reaching out to us, please let us know the following details:

• Your Talkdesk account name/URL;
• Country or countries from which you need to purchase phone numbers;
• Amount of numbers required;
• Type of number;
• Number prefix (if applicable).        

Regulatory requirements for phone numbers have increased worldwide. Depending on the phone number and its features, your or your company's status in the country, and your intentions for the number, different laws and regulations apply.

While some of these regulations are new, many of these laws and rules have been in effect for some time. Countries are increasing enforcement for many reasons – including fraud, incidents of misuse and abuse, and heightened national security concerns.

All your phone numbers need to comply with individual country requirements or they are at risk of being suspended until you submit the proper documentation.
