What is a Regulatory Bundle?
Address and Regulatory Bundles help meet carrier and local regulations for phone number provisioning. Address Bundles capture business identity and address. Regulatory Bundles link your business to country- or number-type rules so numbers can be provisioned without rejection.
Key points:
- Address Bundle: Business identity and address details.
- Regulatory Bundle: Compliance documents for a country/number type.
- Some countries require both to purchase or move numbers.
Auto-population of Business Details
When creating a new Address Bundle, fields are pre-filled using data from the location profile when available. The following fields can auto-populate and remain editable:
- Business name
- Address line 1
- Address line 2
- City
- State
- Postal code
If any location data is missing, the corresponding fields remain blank and can be filled in manually.
