## Frequently asked questions

### How do I get a Colombia phone number?

Sign up for DialAnyone, open Browse & Purchase in the Numbers menu, and pick from the Colombia numbers available at that moment. Activates after the carrier approves your documents, usually within a few business days. No physical SIM card is required. Inventory changes, so the Browse & Purchase tab is the live source of what is available.

### What do I need to get a Colombia number?

A one-time identity verification with DialAnyone (government photo ID and a selfie, online), and for a Colombia local number the carrier also asks for: any address, in any country. Activates after the carrier approves your documents, usually within a few business days.

### Can I receive calls on my Colombia number from anywhere?

Yes. Your virtual Colombia number works globally. Anyone in Colombia can call your +57 number and it rings on your phone or in your browser, wherever you are.

### Do I need to be in Colombia to use the number?

No. Virtual phone numbers work from anywhere with an internet connection. You can be in any country and still take calls to your Colombia number and place calls showing your Colombia caller ID.

### Can I receive SMS on a Colombia phone number?

No. Colombia numbers are voice-only — they cannot send or receive text messages. SMS is not available on Colombia numbers through DialAnyone. To receive SMS verification codes, use a US, UK or other SMS-capable number.

### Can I receive verification codes (OTP) on a Colombia number?

No. Verification codes arrive by SMS, and Colombia numbers cannot receive SMS. Use an SMS-capable number — a US or UK number receives OTP codes from most services and works from anywhere in the world.

### Why can't Colombia numbers receive texts?

The Colombia numbers available to DialAnyone carry voice service only; none of the number types in stock support text messaging. Availability is re-checked daily, and if SMS-capable Colombia numbers become available this page updates.

### How much does a Colombia phone number cost?

There is a small monthly fee for the number plus per-minute rates for calls, billed from your credit balance. No long-term contract.
