Learn moreYou cannot transfer a phone number from Skype to a Microsoft Teams Free personal account, as Teams Free does not support phone calling options. Phone numbers can only be transferred to Teams Business accounts that have an appropriate calling license. If you have a Teams Business account, you can acquire a new phone number through a service provider that offers connectivity to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and then assign it to your account.
