Anti Spoofing - Belgium
Issue
Regulations in Belgium to prevent phone number spoofing require operators and aggregators to block any local Belgian traffic for entities that do not have a registration in Belgium. This means that you can only use a +32 local number if your company has a registration and business address in Belgium.
Via this message we inform you that we will reject and block any Voice calls using +32 numbers if the company profile is missing from our records. This automated blocking will become effective from March 1st, 2025.
