# Delete a number

> Remove an owned phone number from Amplify and deprovision it from the carrier.

Removes a phone number from the Amplify account and deprovisions it from the carrier. Identify the number using both its `number_id` and `order_id` from [List owned numbers](/api-reference/customer-v1/numbers/get-numbers-list.mdx).

<Warning>
  This operation deprovisions the number from the carrier. Applications should require explicit confirmation before sending the request.
</Warning>
