1. What a SIP trunk in Mozambique actually is
A SIP trunk is the IP delivery pipe between a carrier and your PBX, AI voice agent, or call-control platform; signaling over SIP, audio over RTP. A Mozambique SIP trunk is the same thing carrying +258 Mozambique DIDs allocated under INCM.
DIDHub provides the trunk authentication and SIP transport; INCM-compliant number allocation is coordinated through our in-region carrier partners. Your PBX or platform sees a standard SIP trunk; we handle the regulator-side paperwork.
2. Mozambique regulation: INCM, KYC, compliance
INCM requires KYC documentation before any Mozambique DID can be allocated. Activation typically takes 5-10 business days. DIDHub handles the document submission and regulator coordination on your behalf.
What people typically use a Mozambique SIP trunk for:
- Southern Africa presence, Maputo for B2B credibility within SADC region.
- LNG and energy operations, major gas projects in Cabo Delgado.
- Lusophone market, Portuguese-speaking, useful for Brazil/Portugal cross-border.
- Toll-free 800, free for Mozambican callers.
Mozambique's regulator INCM requires KYC for foreign customers. Activation 5-10 business days.
For the broader picture across countries, see our guide to international DID compliance & KYC bundles. For the SIP-trunk concept end-to-end, see the DID Number Provider guide.
3. Number types you can route over the trunk
DIDHub supports the standard Mozambique number types over the SIP trunk:
| Code | Type | National dialing | International dialing | Mobile | From |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
21, 23, 26 … | Geographic | 21 XXXX XXXX | +258 21 XXXX XXXX | Yes | $10.00/mo + usage |
800 | Toll-free | 800 XXXX XXXX | +258 800 XXXX XXXX | Yes | $30.00/mo + usage |
For a deeper look at how number types differ globally, see DID number types explained.
4. How DIDHub's SIP trunk works in Mozambique
The technical surface of the trunk is standardised; the Mozambique-specific choices are the POP, the codec list, and the failover topology.
Ingress POPs
- Johannesburg (primary), lowest in-region latency to Mozambique endpoints.
- Frankfurt (failover), secondary route used if the primary path degrades.
Transport & security
- TLS:5061 recommended for any production trunk; UDP allowed for legacy.
- SRTP for media via DTLS-SRTP or SDES.
- SIP authentication: digest registration (PBX behind NAT) or IP-ACL (static peering). See SIP authentication.
Codecs
- G.711 a-law (PCMA), the African default.
- G.722, wideband HD on capable endpoints.
- Opus, for AI voice agents.
For the codec deep-dive, see voice codecs explained.
DTMF
- RFC 4733 (telephone-events over RTP) is the default. SIP INFO and in-band DTMF available for legacy interop on request.
Channel concurrency
- Trunks start at 5 concurrent channels and scale to 200 per trunk off the shelf. Larger requires a custom arrangement.
- Channels are independent of DID count; you can carry 200 numbers on a 10-channel trunk if your concurrent-call peak is 10. See multiple concurrent calls on one DID.
STIR/SHAKEN
- Not applicable. STIR/SHAKEN is US/Canada-only. African trust signals come through national regulator registration and operator-side caller-ID validation.
5. Outbound calling from your Mozambique trunk
Outbound from a Mozambique-allocated DID to Mozambique destinations is allowed within approved use cases. The per-minute economics:
| Destination | Per-minute | Billing increment | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mozambique landline (geographic) | $0.10/min | 1+1 second | Standard use cases |
| Mozambique mobile | $0.18/min | 1+1 second | Standard use cases |
| International from Mozambique DID | Per destination rate | 1+1 second | See global rates |
Outbound caller-ID rules
- Your outbound CLI must match a DID you've allocated through the trunk. Setting an arbitrary caller ID is rejected at the SBC.
- Origin-based rating (OBR) applies on cross-border outbound, the regulated EEA tier may apply depending on the source carrier.
- For multi-region operators, see origin-based rating savings.
6. Setup in 6 steps
Sign up & submit details
Create a DIDHub account, supply your business details and the intended use case for Mozambique numbers.
INCM compliance review
We coordinate with INCM and our in-region carrier; typical timeline 5-10 business days.
Allocate DIDs & channel capacity
You pick the Mozambique number types you need and how many. Channel capacity allocated at the same time.
Receive trunk credentials
SIP URI (defaults to sip.didhub.io, terminating to Johannesburg), digest username/password or IP-ACL details, TLS cert verification fingerprint, and your assigned DIDs.
Wire up your PBX or platform
Standard SIP trunk configuration on Asterisk, FreePBX, 3CX, Kamailio, OpenSIPS, or any modern stack. For Teams Direct Routing, Vapi, Retell, or other BYOC platforms, paste credentials into their BYOC config.
Test inbound + outbound
Place a test call to one of your DIDs from a Mozambique mobile or landline; place a test outbound back. Confirm caller-ID resolves correctly, codec negotiates as expected, and audio quality is acceptable.

10. FAQ
Which POP should I connect to for a Mozambique SIP trunk?
Johannesburg is the recommended primary; Frankfurt is the standard failover. Both terminate to Mozambique via in-region carriers.
How long does activation take for a Mozambique SIP trunk?
5-10 business days after KYC documents are accepted (or instantly where KYC isn't required). Provisioning the SIP side itself is hours, not days; the variability is on the INCM/carrier side.
What codecs should I configure for a Mozambique SIP trunk?
G.711a / G.722 / Opus as the negotiation list, in that order. G.711a is the regional default for Mozambique interop.
Can I use my Mozambique SIP trunk with Microsoft Teams?
Yes, via Microsoft Teams Direct Routing through DIDHub's managed SBC. See Teams Direct Routing.
Can I use my Mozambique SIP trunk with AI voice agents (Vapi, Retell, ElevenLabs)?
Yes, BYOC SIP trunk works with every major AI voice platform. Bind specific Mozambique DIDs to specific agents; outbound CLI must match an allocated DID.
How many concurrent calls can one Mozambique DID handle?
The DID is an address; concurrent-call capacity is set by the channel count on the trunk. A 50-channel trunk with 1 DID can carry 50 concurrent calls to that one number; the same trunk with 200 DIDs can carry 50 concurrent calls across any combination of those numbers.
Does STIR/SHAKEN apply in Mozambique?
N/A (regional construct). Trust signals come instead through national regulator registration and operator-side caller-ID validation.
Can I port my existing Mozambique number to a DIDHub SIP trunk?
Yes. Typical Mozambique port timeline is 3-5 weeks. Required documents vary by number type; contact us for the specific checklist. See number porting explained for the global picture.
What use cases get approved most easily?
Customer service inbound, opted-in callbacks, transactional 2FA, inbound AI voice agents, and Microsoft Teams Direct Routing for registered entities. Cold outbound, unsolicited SMS campaigns, and anonymous-relay setups are routinely rejected.
