PhoneNumberUtil

Basic Usage

parse()

Returns a PhoneNumber object version of the $number supplied with the $region code.

If the number is passed in an international format (e.g. +44 117 496 0123), then the region code is not needed, and can be null. Failing that, the library will use the region code to work out the phone number based on rules loaded for that region.

$phoneNumberUtil = \libphonenumber\PhoneNumberUtil::getInstance();

$phoneNumberObject = $phoneNumberUtil->parse('0117 496 0123', 'GB');
$phoneNumberObject = $phoneNumberUtil->parse('+44 117 496 0123', null);
$phoneNumberObject = $phoneNumberUtil->parse('00 44 117 496 0123', 'FR');
$phoneNumberObject = $phoneNumberUtil->parse('117 496 0123', 'GB');

All the above examples return the same $phoneNumberObject, which contains:

object(libphonenumber\PhoneNumber)#31 (9) {
  ["countryCode":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  int(44)
  ["nationalNumber":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  string(10) "1174960123"
  ["extension":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  NULL
  ["italianLeadingZero":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  NULL
  ["rawInput":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  NULL
  ["countryCodeSource":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  NULL
  ["preferredDomesticCarrierCode":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  NULL
  ["hasNumberOfLeadingZeros":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  bool(false)
  ["numberOfLeadingZeros":"libphonenumber\PhoneNumber":private]=>
  int(1)
}

A NumberParseException will be thrown if it is unable to obtain a viable number. For example, if the number is too short/long, or the region is invalid. This does not tell you whether the number is valid or not. In order to determine whether the number is valid, it needs to be checked in the validation functions.

The returned PhoneNumber object is used with other functions to provide additional information.

Phone Number Information

getRegionCodeForNumber()

Returns the region code for the PhoneNumber object you pass.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->getRegionCodeForNumber($phoneNumberObject));
// string(2) "GB"

getNumberType()

Returns a PhoneNumberType constant for the PhoneNumber object you pass.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->getNumberType($phoneNumberObject));
// int(0) (PhoneNumberType::FIXED_LINE)

canBeInternationallyDialled()

Returns a boolean whether the supplied PhoneNumber object can be dialled internationally.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->canBeInternationallyDialled($phoneNumberObject));
// bool(true)

$australianPhoneNumberObject = $phoneNumberUtil->parse('1300123456', 'AU');

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->canBeInternationallyDialled($australianPhoneNumberObject));
// bool(false)

Validation

isPossibleNumber()

Returns a boolean whether the supplied phone number is possible or not.

This function accepts either a PhoneNumber object, or a phone number string and a region code (as with parse()).

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->isPossibleNumber($phoneNumberObject));
// bool(true)

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->isPossibleNumber('01174960123', 'GB'));
// bool(true)

isPossibleNumberWithReason()

Returns a ValidationResult constant with the result of whether the supplied PhoneNumber object is possible.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->isPossibleNumberWithReason($phoneNumberObject));
// int(0) (ValidationResult::IS_POSSIBLE)

isValidNumber()

Returns a boolean whether the supplied PhoneNumber object is valid or not.

Important: This doesn't actually validate whether the number is in use. libphonenumber-for-php is only able to validate number patterns, and isn't able to check with telecommunication providers.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->isValidNumber($phoneNumberObject));
// bool(true)

isValidNumberForRegion()

Returns a boolean whether the supplied PhoneNumber object is valid for the $region.

Important: As with isValidNumber(), this can not validate whether the number is in use.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->isValidNumberForRegion($phoneNumberObject, 'FR'));
// bool(false)

Formatting

format()

Formats the supplied PhoneNumber object in the PhoneNumberFormat constant.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->format($phoneNumberObject, PhoneNumberFormat::E164));
// string(13) "+441174960123"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->format($phoneNumberObject, PhoneNumberFormat::INTERNATIONAL));
// string(16) "+44 117 496 0123"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->format($phoneNumberObject, PhoneNumberFormat::NATIONAL));
// string(13) "0117 496 0123"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->format($phoneNumberObject, PhoneNumberFormat::RFC3966));
// string(20) "tel:+44-117-496-0123"

formatOutOfCountryCallingNumber()

Formats the supplied PhoneNumber object based on the $regionCallingFrom.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->formatOutOfCountryCallingNumber($phoneNumberObject, 'FR'));
// string(18) "00 44 117 496 0123"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->formatOutOfCountryCallingNumber($phoneNumberObject, 'US'));
// string(19) "011 44 117 496 0123"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->formatOutOfCountryCallingNumber($phoneNumberObject, 'GB'));
// string(13) "0117 496 0123"

formatNumberForMobileDialing()

Formats the supplied PhoneNumber object in a way that it can be dialled from the $regionCallingFrom. It's third parameter determines whether there is any formatting applied to the number.

$australianPhoneNumberObject = $phoneNumberUtil->parse('1300123456', 'AU');

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->formatNumberForMobileDialing($australianPhoneNumberObject, 'AU', true));
// string(12) "1300 123 456"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->formatNumberForMobileDialing($australianPhoneNumberObject, 'AU', false));
// string(10) "1300123456"

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->formatNumberForMobileDialing($australianPhoneNumberObject, 'US', true));
// string(0) ""

If the number can not be dialled from the region supplied, then an empty string is returned.

Example Numbers

getExampleNumber()

Returns an example PhoneNumber object for the $regionCode supplied.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->getExampleNumber('GB'));
// (PhoneNumber) Country Code: 44 National Number: 1212345678 ... 

getExampleNumberForType()

Returns an example PhoneNumber object for the $regionCode supplied of the PhoneNumberType.

This also accepts the first parameter being a PhoneNumberType, where it will return a valid number for the specified number type from any country. Just leave the second parameter as null.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->getExampleNumberForType('GB', PhoneNumberType::MOBILE));
// (PhoneNumber) Country Code: 44 National Number: 7400123456 ...

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->getExampleNumberForType(PhoneNumberType::MOBILE));
// (PhoneNumber) Country Code: 1 National Number: 2015555555 ...

getInvalidExampleNumber()

Returns an example invalid PhoneNumber object for the $regionCode supplied.

This can be useful for unit testing, where you want to test with an invalid number. The number returned will be able to be parsed. It may also be a valid short number for the region.

var_dump($phoneNumberUtil->getInvalidExampleNumber('GB'));
// (PhoneNumber) Country Code: 44 National Number: 121234567 ...
