Numbering resources in some countries require documentation for business verification. You can check for requirements in our [support article](https://support.telnyx.com/en/articles/5469551-international-numbers-required-documents), and prepare any documentation needed to order and activate numbers. Once you have everything ready, simply log in to your [Mission Control Portal](https://portal.telnyx.com/ "Portal") and search for SMS capable numbers in the desired area.
