# What are the Documents Required to Get Kenya Virtual Phone Numbers?

The documents required for a Kenya virtual phone number depend on the number you pick. Calilio lists local numbers in Kenya, and the ADDRESS REQUIREMENTS column on its Purchase Number screen shows whether a number needs proof of address before you buy it.

Calilio sells phone numbers in Kenya from the Purchase Number screen, and each number in the search results carries its own address requirement. The ADDRESS REQUIREMENTS column on that screen tells you whether the number you picked needs proof of address before you can buy it.

## Which phone numbers does Calilio offer in Kenya?

* Click **Settings**, then **Add a New Number** on **My Numbers**, and choose **Kenya (+254)** in the **Country** list.
* The **Type** list offers local numbers in Kenya.
* A search for a number in Kenya can come back with no results. The screen then reads "This number is currently unavailable." and offers a **Choose another available number** link.
* Calilio still lists Kenya in the **Country** list while no numbers are in stock, so the country appears but the results table stays empty.

## What documents does Calilio accept?

Calilio asks for proof of identity and proof of address, and what counts depends on whether you registered as an individual or as a business. An individual can prove identity with a government-issued ID or a passport, and address with a utility bill, a tax invoice, a rent receipt, or a title deed.

A business proves identity with its company registration document and address with a bank-issued document, a utility bill, or a tax invoice. The accepted documents are listed in full in [__what are the documents required for a number purchase__](https://support.calilio.com/en/article/what-are-the-documents-required-for-a-number-purchase-guclpd/).

## Do you need to submit documents to get a phone number in Kenya?

No numbers in Kenya were on the Purchase Number screen to read, so this article claims no address requirement for them. Calilio lists local numbers there, and the ADDRESS REQUIREMENTS column shows what each one needs once numbers come back in stock.
