Number Services

Number administration has been a cornerstone of Neustar’s business since 1996, when we rose to the many challenges of implementing local number portability (LNP) in response to a U.S. government mandate. Today, our palette has expanded to include a range of essential numbering services:

  • We administer LNP throughout the United States and Canada as the operator of the Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC). We also launched wireless number portability to much of the North American market in 2003.
  • We have served as the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA) since 1997. The NANPA uses area codes and telephone numbers to direct telephone calls to specific regions on a public switched telephone network.
  • We have been the official Number Pooling Administrator (NPA) since 2001. Number pooling has created much more flexibility in the creation, usage and longevity of area codes and telephone numbers across North America.
  • We support and maintain Taiwan’s Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC) on behalf of Taiwan’s Telecom Technology Center (TTC).
  • In partnership with ClearTech, a Brazilian IT solutions provider, we provide telephone number portability services to Latin America’s largest nation.
