How to Call a +1 Number from the US
Numbers in the United States have 10 digits after +1. Every +1 country is part of the North American Numbering Plan: dial 1, the 3-digit area code and the 7-digit number, with no 011.
| Number | From a US landline | From a mobile |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile | 1 201-XXX-XXXX |
+1 201-XXX-XXXX |
| Landline | 1 201-XXX-XXXX |
+1 201-XXX-XXXX |
| Toll-free | 1 800-XXX-XXXX |
+1 800-XXX-XXXX |
X stands for any digit. Toll-free numbers often can't be reached from abroad. Full list of number types: United States phone number format.
Got a Call From +1?
A +1 number is not always American: the North American Numbering Plan is shared by the US, Canada and many Caribbean countries. The 3-digit area code after +1 tells you where. If you know someone there, it may be them. If you don't, be careful before you call back.
Reading a +1 number
- •Mobile or landline? The number can't tell you: mobiles and landlines share the same area codes in the United States.
- •Landlines start with an area code, for example +1 201-XXX-XXXX for New Jersey.
- •Local time: 2:20 AM in Washington right now, an unusual hour for a genuine call.
- •Don't call back a number you don't recognize. One-ring scams hang up after a ring or two so you return the call, which can add a per-minute charge on top of an international rate.
- •Caller ID can be faked. The code shown is not proof of where the caller really is.
- •Real callers leave a message. If it matters, they'll text, email or leave a voicemail. Otherwise, block the number.
