Phone number formats and regions

Suggest Edits

Webex Interact supports local formats i.e. valid numbers starting with 7, 07, 447 and +447 for UK numbers whereas all other country numbers are expected to be in E.164 international format.

📘

E.164 international format: [+][country code][phone number]

✔ A plus sign (+) to indicate an international number
✔ The country code (e.g., +44 for the United Kingdom)
✔ The full phone number (including area or mobile codes)

For example, a Spain number in local format would be 6695344XX but in E.164 format is +346695344XX where +34 is the country code and 6695344XX is a phone number.

This article explains how to format and send to different countries for SMS and WhatsApp:
