> A free phone number validator. Check whether a number is valid, format it for any system
> (E.164, international, national, RFC 3966) and identify its country and line type.
> Parsing runs entirely in the browser: numbers are never sent to a server.

## What it does

- Validates a number against the numbering plan of 245 countries and territories: the length and
  the range a regulator has assigned to a carrier or service.
- Formats a valid number as E.164 (`+16502530000`), international, national and RFC 3966 (`tel:`).
- Identifies the country, calling code, region and line type (mobile, landline, VoIP, toll-free
  and more), plus local time where the number was assigned.
- Checks lists in bulk, one number per line, and exports the results as CSV.

## Limits

- "Valid" means the number is well-formed and in an assigned range. It does not mean the line is
  active, nor who owns it. That needs a live carrier (HLR) lookup, which this site does not do.
- Some countries, including the US and Canada, mix mobile and fixed numbers in the same ranges,
  so the line type there is reported as "Landline or mobile".
