HLR StatusPossible statuses are as follows. You can find more information in the Reason column.

- Active - the number is currently linked to a network and is under a paid subscription. If the target phone number is linked to a SIM card, it will not appear as Active unless the SIM card is inserted into a phone.
NOTE: This HLR status does not guarantee callability because it can be affected by factors like the number being suspended or blocked, network issues, or undergoing porting.
- Absent - the number is not reachable; this can be due to a loss in connection or the phone being switched off
- Failed - this status can appear due to the following reasons:
HLR unavailability - the HLR server may be temporarily unavailable or overloaded, which can prevent the system from querying it, or
Invalid phone number- if the phone number provided for the lookup is incorrect or invalid, the HLR might fail to find a matching result
