# Country requirements for phone numbers


Outside the US, regulations often require a local address and specific identification documents in order to purchase and use a phone number. The address can be a business or personal address. The following tables list the countries that require identification. When you [request international phone numbers](request-intl-numbers.md) or you [port existing phone numbers](porting.md), the Amazon Chime SDK support works with you to submit the necessary documents.

**Note**  
Make sure you provide the identities and addresses of the end-users who use your phone numbers.
