Validate Sri Lanka Phone Numbers (+94)
Check whether a Sri Lanka phone number has the correct format before calling, texting, or saving it. Sri Lankan mobile numbers are 10 digits locally starting with 07. The trunk prefix 0 is dropped for international dialing, leaving 9 digits after the country code. The prefix after 07 identifies the carrier (071 Mobitel, 077 Dialog, 078 Hutch). NumSwift validates each number against Sri Lanka's numbering rules, catching common errors like wrong digit counts, missing country codes, and invalid prefixes.

Frequently Asked Questions
▶How many digits should a Sri Lanka phone number have?
Sri Lankan mobile numbers are 10 digits locally starting with 07. The trunk prefix 0 is dropped for international dialing, leaving 9 digits after the country code. The prefix after 07 identifies the carrier (071 Mobitel, 077 Dialog, 078 Hutch). NumSwift checks the digit count of each number against these rules and flags any that are too short or too long as invalid.
▶How can I tell if a Sri Lanka number is mobile or landline?
In Sri Lanka, mobile numbers start with 07 locally. Landline numbers use different prefixes. NumSwift's validation engine recognises both types and formats each one correctly, so you can tell the type from the prefix of the extracted number.
▶Does validation confirm the number is active?
NumSwift validates the format and structure of the number against Sri Lanka's numbering plan — it checks digit count, prefix validity, and country code correctness. It does not perform a live carrier lookup, so it cannot confirm whether the number is currently active or in service.
▶Can I validate Sri Lanka numbers in bulk?
Yes. Paste a large block of text containing multiple Sri Lanka phone numbers and NumSwift extracts and validates them all at once. Only numbers matching Sri Lanka's +94 format appear in the results — everything else is filtered out. There is no limit on how many numbers you can validate in a single paste.
