Summary

AWS accounts can now verify primary contact phone numbers via SMS OTP using new SendPhoneNumberVerification and VerifyPhoneNumber APIs.
Verification status is returned by GetContactInformation, and any change via PutContactInformation triggers re‑verification.
In AWS Organizations, verified numbers inherit to member accounts from the management account, avoiding duplicate verification.
