Frequently Asked Questions
What is E.164 format?
E.164 is the international standard for phone numbers. It includes the country code with a + prefix, followed by the national number without any formatting. Example: +14155552671. Most APIs and databases prefer this format.
How accurate is the validation?
The validator checks number length, prefix validity, and format rules for each country. It can determine if a number is valid for a specific country, but cannot verify if the number is actually in service or assigned.
What phone types can be detected?
The tool can identify: Mobile, Fixed Line, Toll-Free, Premium Rate, VoIP, Pager, and more. Detection is based on number prefixes and ranges defined for each country.
Can I validate numbers without the country code?
Yes, select the country from the dropdown and enter just the national number. The validator will automatically apply the correct country code for validation and formatting.
