- Confirm your numbers are moved to the elastic SIP trunk in Twilio
2. Import numbers to Retell:
- Import each number to your new Retell workspace with the termination SIP URI
- If using credential-based auth, supply the username and password
- You can import via the dashboard or the [Import Number API]()
3. Common issues to check:
For outbound "invalid destination" errors:
- Remove any spaces in your Termination SIP URI
- Use a localized termination URI near your region
- Verify username/password credentials match exactly (username differs from friendly name)
- If you have "Secure Trunking" enabled in Twilio, try turning it off [(2) ]()
For **inbound calls not answered**:
- Confirm origination URI is set to sip:sip.retellai.com [(1) ]()
- Ensure the imported number is bound to an agent in Retell
4. IP Whitelisting (if needed) :
Retell's IP blocks: 18.98.16.120/30 (All regions) , 143.223.88.0/21 (US only) , 161.115.160.0/19 (US only) [(3) ]()

12/15/2025, 11:23 AMtermination_uri matches exactly what you configured in Twilio (typically ends with .pstn.twilio.com) [(2) ]()
For international dialing:
- If calling outside the US, enable "Voice Geographic Permissions" under Elastic SIP Trunking in Twilio [(1) ]()
Since the calls aren't reaching Twilio logs at all, the issue may be on the Retell-to-Twilio routing side. For workspace-specific enablement or account issues, please reach out via [Contact Sales]() or check [Retell AI GitHub]() for additional support channels.AI Evy

- You should use a localized termination URI near your region for better performance. You can find your localized URIs in the Twilio console. [(1) ]()
- When you import the number to Retell, you supply this same termination SIP URI so Retell knows where to route outbound calls.
For reference, Twilio provides region-specific termination URIs documented here: [Twilio Localized URIs]()
Example format: your-trunk-name.pstn.twilio.com or a regional variant like your-trunk-name.pstn.us1.twilio.com
Make sure there are no spaces in the URI when configuring.AI Evy

12/15/2025, 11:39 AMretell-twilliocall.pstn.twilio.com can be your termination SIP URI, provided that's the name you gave your trunk in Twilio. [(1) ]()
A few things to verify:
- The format should match what you configured in Twilio's Elastic SIP Trunk termination section
- Make sure there are no spaces in the URI
- Consider using a localized termination URI near your region for better performance (e.g., retell-twilliocall.pstn.us1.twilio.com for US) . You can view your localized URIs in the Twilio console.
- When importing the number to Retell, supply this exact termination SIP URI along with username/password if you set up credential-based authentication
For regional URI options, check [Twilio's localized URIs documentation]() .AI Evy
