What is this section used for?
- Quick E.164 regex checks for EU & UK phone numbers (mobile and landline).
- Each row shows the country code, an example number, and a regex.
These patterns are indicative. The API validates phone numbers itself, for the number's country: it requires the country code, checks the length, and can reject a number of the right length as not valid. It returns
phoneNumber is not valid,phoneNumber is too shortorphoneNumber is too long. The patterns below are a first-pass, client-side check and can differ from the API's result.
How to use
- Use the format
+<country code><number>, for example+33612345678. - The API and the online form accept spaces, but the patterns on this page do not match them. Remove spaces and hyphens before matching a number against a pattern.
- Use the mobile table for mobiles and the landline table for fixed lines.
Notes
- These patterns validate format only (not whether a number is active).
- Numbering plans change, so treat this as a first-pass check.

Notes:
- These regexes validate mobile numbers only.
- They do not match spaces or hyphens, which the API and the online form accept. Remove them before matching.
- E.164 format is always:
++country code+subscriber number(no leading 0). - The Hungarian pattern covers the prefixes 20, 30, 31, 50 and 70.
- The patterns for Croatia, Luxembourg and Poland check only the country code and the number of digits shown in the example.
