Hello NVIDIA team,

I’m trying to generate an API key on [build.nvidia.com](http://build.nvidia.com) but I’m blocked at the  
phone verification step. When I enter my Dominican Republic mobile number  
(country code +1, area code 809/829/849), the form rejects it as an  
“invalid number”, even though the Dominican Republic appears in the supported  
location list.

I’ve already tried:

- Entering the number in several formats (with/without +1, full E.164, and the  
10 digits only).
- No leading 0, area code included, a real SMS-capable mobile (not VoIP).

Could you please manually verify my phone number / whitelist my account so I can  
receive the verification SMS, or directly activate my API access?

Registered account email: [vsangiovanni@hotmail.com](mailto:vsangiovanni@hotmail.com)  
Phone (country code +1 809): I’ll share the full number privately.  
Error shown: “invalid number”

Happy to provide the full phone number and any account details via private  
message. Thank you!
