Extract Phone Numbers From Text

Common shapes such as a leading + country code, (123) 456-7890, 123-456-7890, 123.456.7890, a plain 10-digit run and international numbers written with spaces. Digits may be separated by spaces, dots, hyphens or parentheses.

After finding a candidate the extractor counts its digits and only keeps runs of 7 to 15 digits. A four-digit year like 1998 is too short and an 18-digit reference code is too long, so both are dropped.

Yes, and Remove duplicates is on by default. Two numbers are treated as the same when their digits match, so 555-123-4567 and 555.123.4567 count once. The first spelling you pasted is the one that is kept.

No. Whatever formatting you pasted, including brackets, dots, spaces and the plus sign, is preserved in the output. The digit-only form is used internally only for de-duplicating and sorting.

It reorders the list by comparing the stripped digit strings, so numbers starting with a lower digit come first. With sorting off, numbers appear in the order they were found in your text.

No. This is a pattern extractor, not a validator. It has no idea whether an area code exists or a line is in service, so treat the results as candidates to review rather than verified contacts.

An extension written after separators can be joined into the match when it sits inside the same run of digits and separators. A number broken across two lines by a hard line break is treated as two fragments, so rejoin the text first if that happens.
