Short answer
Yes. FirstNet manages porting of your geographic and non-geographic numbers end to end, using a Letter of Authority (LoA) that you sign. A typical port takes 5 to 15 business days, depending on the losing carrier.
In detail
How a port works:
- FirstNet captures the numbers and ranges to move, your current operator and your caller ID presentation rules.
- You sign the LoA, which FirstNet prepares and submits to your current (losing) carrier.
- The losing carrier accepts, queries or rejects the request. Queries usually come from address or account holder mismatches, or numbers tied to other services.
- A low-traffic cutover window is agreed with a rollback option, and FirstNet provisions the numbers in parallel.
- After cutover, FirstNet monitors calls for the first 24 hours and confirms with you.
Large blocks, multi-site or multi-carrier consolidations usually take 3 to 6 weeks. FirstNet does not control how quickly the losing carrier responds, so it does not guarantee dates that depend on another operator. Accurate account details and a promptly signed LoA avoid most delays, and numbers can be ported out again later, so you are not locked in.
