How Long Does It Take to Request a Number?
When you request your 0800, 0900, or 088 number through Belfabriek, your service number is registered in your name and listed with the Authority for Consumers & Markets (ACM) 🏢.
About 2 weeks after submitting the request, you will receive a written proof of ownership of your number from the ACM. This ensures that you are the sole rightful owner of your number 🙌.
From that moment, you can start using your new phone number on your printed materials, website, and so on.
We then need an additional 5 to 7 working days to activate the number and ensure it is reachable via all telecom operators in the Netherlands ☎️.
In calendar time, a request takes about 3 weeks from start to finish.
