Tennessee Porting Notice

If you want to change telephone or mobile service providers while remaining in the same geographic area, you can keep your existing phone number. This process - often referred to as phone number porting - can be done between wireline, Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and wireless providers.

If you are moving to a new geographic area, you may not be able to keep your current phone number when changing providers. Also, some rural wireline service providers may obtain waivers for the porting requirement from state authorities. Their customers may be unable to port their number to a new provider.
