How to port your mobile number to Airtel: step-by-step guide

You can port your mobile number to Airtel online through the Airtel Thanks app or offline at an Airtel store, in three steps, while keeping your existing number.

Step 1: Generate your Unique Porting Code (UPC)

• Open your phone's messaging app.
• Type an SMS in the format PORT followed by your 10-digit mobile number.
• Send it to 1900.
• You receive a Unique Porting Code (UPC) from 1901, valid for 4 days.

Step 2: Submit a port request

• Online: on the Airtel Thanks app, choose your preferred prepaid or postpaid plan and submit your address with your UPC. An executive visits your home for KYC verification, where this service is available.

Step 3: Activation
