Quick facts
Typical time: 1–5 business days for fixed-line/VoIP numbers, immediate to 2 days for mobiles (dependent on losing provider).
Requirements: Proof of business identity and an active service with the losing carrier.
Step-by-step porting process
Provide ABN/ACN, proof of authority (e.g., director ID), and a recent bill or account reference from the current provider. For VoIP or fixed-line, also include account numbers and service addresses.
We submit the Porting Authorisation Request (PAR) to your current carrier. Confirmation and timing depend on the losing carrier and number type.
Once approved, we schedule a cutover window. We test calls and messaging, and provide support for DNS/VoIP reconfiguration if needed.
If porting fails due to mismatched details, we'll guide you through rectifying the record with the losing carrier.
Common business scenarios
- Bulk porting for multi-site operations.
- Porting numbers from legacy PBX/VoIP providers.
- Moving both mobile and fixed numbers in a single project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — you can keep your existing number(s) provided the account details match the losing carrier record and the number is eligible (not recently ported or in dispute).
Typically ABN/ACN, proof of authority to act for the company, and a recent bill or account reference. For VoIP, additional routing details may be required.
We schedule a cutover to minimise downtime. For mobile numbers, downtime is often seconds to minutes; fixed-line or VoIP may require a maintenance window.
