Summary

The new version of Twilio's Phone Number Compliance APIs (v2) is now in Beta, introducing significant changes to simplify regulatory compliance for users. The migration aims to make it easier for developers to provision phone numbers in regulated countries by providing a more programmatic way to follow each country's telecom regulations and operate within the country. With this update, Twilio's Regulatory Rules Engine will handle complex regulation requirements, such as End-User, Supporting Document, and Address items, making it simpler for users to manage regulatory compliance. The new API offers a scalable solution to provide required regulatory information, reducing the time-consuming process of pushing compliance information to carriers or regulators. Users can now access the Regulatory Compliance v2 Console and APIs to start using this updated feature, ensuring their phone numbers are compliant with local requirements, thereby preventing potential disconnections by regulators or carriers.
