### Answer Hello Matthieu, Yes, you are correct that only US and Canada phone numbers can be directly purchased through Vapi. For phone numbers in other regions, including France, they must be imported from external telephony providers like Twilio or Vonage [(1)]() . If neither Twilio nor Vonage currently offers French numbers, you might need to explore other telephony providers who can offer +33 numbers. Once you obtain a French number, it can be integrated into Vapi by importing it, as you've mentioned. This is indeed the recommended approach given the limitations with direct procurement of non-US/CA numbers through Vapi. I recommend checking periodically with Twilio and Vonage for availability or exploring other telephony providers that might offer French numbers. Once a number is secured, you can import it into Vapi using the import functionality [(2)]() . Best regards, Inkeep

You’d just have to pay international fees

But thats the work around

since they recently added the ability to use caller ids in the api

double check the information before doing it thouggh

I used my phone number as a caller id and made it call a resturant and it worked, but it was outside vapi. so double check if they actually made caller id's work inside of vapi
