The traditional formatting of a phone number includes parentheses around the area code, and a dash between the exchange and the subscriber number. As design is largely about simplification, the dotted phone number does make sense. The traditional format includes 14 characters if you count spaces.

Officially, all calls to US numbers begin with a ?+1? because that is the region code for North America and the Caribbean (technically, the North American Numbering Plan or NANP). That's why your phone displays a ?1? before the number; it really is part of the number.

National format for telephone numbers For landline telephone numbers, write the 2-digit area code followed by a non-breaking space. Then write the rest of the number in 2 chunks of 4 digits. Write mobile telephone numbers in 1 chunk of 4 digits and then 2 chunks of 3 digits.

Since the U.S. and Canada both use the North American Numbering Plan, the commonly accepted formatting of phone numbers is (NPA) NXX-X, NPA-NXX-X or 1-NPA-NXX-X. The 'NPA' is the area code, 'NXX' is the central office code, and 'X' is the subscriber number personal to each phone.

You can use the ?+? symbol in place of ?011? if dialing from a cell phone. The ?+? sign is usually the same key as ?0? on a smartphone's keypad. Some countries share a country code. For example, Canada, the United States, some places in the Caribbean, and Guam share ?1? as a country code.

Simply dial 1, the area code, and the number you are trying to reach. To call a phone in another country, dial 011, and then the code for the country you are calling, the area or city code, and the phone number.

For example, if a contact in the United States (country code "1") has the area code "408" and phone number "-X", you'd enter +1 408 X.
