Twilio phone numbers can be easily transferred between different projects by the Twilio Support team. To request this change, please gather the following information:
- Phone Number(s): The full phone number(s) you wish to move.
- Losing Account SID: The AC SID for the project or your account that is giving up the phone number.
- Gaining Account SID: The AC SID for the project or your account that will be receiving the phone number.
- Time frame: The requested time frame for your change to complete (ASAP or a future date).
- Regulatory Requirements (if required):
- As Twilio does not transfer bundles,
If you need to transfer a NON US / Canada number, we will need to create a bundle/address on the project or your account that will be receiving the phone number.
Once the Twilio support team moves the number into the correct your account within your account's Twilio account, you will see the number in the software > Client your account > Settings > Phone Numbers.
Step 1: Identify the Twilio account credentials
You can identify the Account SID in the Settings > Phone Integration page > https://app.yourdomain.com/settings/phone_integration
