Canada Phone Number Format & Country Code +1
Canadian numbers are 10 digits following the NANP format: 3-digit area code + 7-digit local number. Canada shares the +1 country code with the United States. To dial a Canada number internationally, replace the local trunk prefix with +1. For example, (416) 123-4567 becomes +1 416 123 4567. NumSwift converts between these formats automatically, validating each number against Canada's numbering plan.
