Switching networks shouldn’t feel like a complicated task. That’s why we’ve made our Vi MNP service smooth, efficient, and entirely customer-friendly. Whether you’re tired of frequent call drops, laggy data speeds, or limited plan choices, our MNP online service lets you bring your number to Vi quickly, without the usual paperwork and delays. From doorstep SIM delivery to instant plan activation, our MNP Process is designed to give you the best of Vi’s network and benefits, without losing your existing number.
What is MNP?
Mobile Number Portability (MNP) allows you to switch from your current network to another operator while retaining your existing number. If you’re not fully satisfied with your current service provider, whether it’s due to coverage issues, limited plan options, or inconsistent service, you can use the SIM Port Process to move to Vi.
The eligibility criteria are straightforward:
- You must have been on your current network for at least 90 days.
- Any outstanding dues with your current operator should be cleared.
- The mobile number should not be under any court prohibition for MNP.
With Vi, we’ve taken the hassle out of the process. You don’t have to stand in queues or fill out piles of forms. Instead, with MNP online, you can initiate the process from the comfort of your home and enjoy fast, reliable connectivity on our network.
Is MNP Process for Vi Free of Charge?
If you are porting your mobile number to Vi prepaid or postpaid, there are no charges involved, and you will be receiving your new Vi SIM Card for free as well.
How Does the Vi MNP Process Work?
Porting your number to Vi is simpler than ever. Here’s how you can complete the MNP Process in just a few easy steps:
- Generate a Unique Porting Code (UPC)
Send an SMS: PORT <10-digit mobile number> to 1900. You’ll receive your UPC on the same number. - Visit the Vi MNP Page
Head to our official website and go to the MNP page. Enter your area pin code and mobile number, then choose whether you want a prepaid or postpaid connection. - Select Your Plan
Choose a plan that suits your usage, whether it’s our all-new Vi Max Postpaid Plans or Unlimited Prepaid Plans. - Place Your Order Online
Your new Vi SIM will be delivered to your doorstep free of cost, and our digital representative will complete the KYC verification at the time of delivery. - Porting Timeline
Once your SIM Port Process is initiated, it takes 3–5 working days to complete within the same circle and 15 working days for Jammu & Kashmir, Assam and the Northeast regions. The SIM typically activates within 2–4 hours of porting.
And that’s it; you’re ready to enjoy seamless Vi services without losing your number.

What Should You Keep in Mind Before Starting the SIM Port Process?
To make sure your MNP online request goes smoothly, remember these important points:
- Clear any pending bills with your current operator.
- Ensure 90 days have passed since you activated your current SIM.
- Provide a valid UPC during the application.
- Ensure no ongoing ownership transfer requests are active on your number.
- Check for contractual obligations that may prevent porting.
Failure to meet any of these conditions can result in rejection of your port request. If that happens, you’ll be informed of the reason via SMS, and you can reapply once the issue is resolved.
