Most people using services in the US order products themselves, using the warehouse address instead of their mailing address. A separate element of the address is the telephone number. Does the phone number matter, how to indicate it - in this topic.

US landline and mobile phone number format, spellings and examples

The US telephone numbering standard has been aligned with the international system. Each number starts with +1 - this is the so-called “country code”, similar to the Russian one +7 . In addition to the United States, Canada and most Caribbean countries use this code.

Next comes the territory code - a three-digit number starting with numbers from 2 to 9 . For example, 202 is the code for the capital of the United States, the city of Washington, and 302 - Delaware state code. Behind it is a service code of the same format, identifying a specific operator.

The three codes are followed directly by the subscriber number - four digits from the range 0000 – 9999 . Thus, the full subscriber number has 11 characters, but for internal calls abbreviated ten-digit versions (without a country code) or seven-digit ones (within the territory code) are more often used. Full numbers are usually written in the format +1 (XXX) XXX-XXXX , or 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX .

It is noteworthy that American mobile numbers do not have a dedicated prefix, using the same area codes. In addition, Americans can transfer a number from a mobile operator to a landline operator, and vice versa. Therefore, it is quite difficult to quickly determine the room category.

Where to get an American phone number to register on American websites

Almost all American online stores require a phone number when filling out postal information. True, its necessity is quite conditional - the store will not call without a good reason for this; in 99% of cases, communication occurs via e-mail.

The indication is American numbers are required for non-US residents to register at a broker's address, so in such cases it is best to use the number that the mail forwarder has assigned to your mailing address. Often such numbers have a rather fictitious meaning, being indicated simply “for show”.

You can use another American number for registration (your SIM card from the USA, the number of a friend/relative) - this is not prohibited. However, the number will have to be adjusted to the international 11-digit format, the generally accepted form: +1 (XXX) XXX-XXXX or +1-XXX-XXX-XXXX .

US virtual phone number with the ability to receive calls and SMS

There are many sites and applications that provide (paid or free) a virtual number for a specific state. Unlike VoIP telephony, which is described in the topic, these services provide almost full-fledged telephone numbers. You can not only make calls from them, but also receive incoming calls and SMS messages.

They are used to communicate with loved ones and as an additional personal number. It’s worth noting that most of these services do not allow receiving messages from short numbers or from letter recipients, so you won’t be able to use them to register on third-party resources.
