Formatting Phone Numbers in PHP

I am working on an SMS app and need to be able to convert the sender's phone number from +11234567890 to 123-456-7890 so it can be compared to records in a MySQL database.

The numbers are stored in the latter format for use elsewhere on the site and I would rather not change that format as it would require modifying a lot of code.

How would I go about this with PHP?

Thanks!

This is a US phone formatter that works on more versions of numbers than any of the current answers.

$numbers = explode("\n", '(111) 222-3333
((111) 222-3333
1112223333
111 222-3333
111-222-3333
(111)2223333
+11234567890
    1-8002353551
    123-456-7890   -Hello!
+1 - 1234567890 
');


foreach($numbers as $number)
{
	print preg_replace('~.*(\d{3})[^\d]{0,7}(\d{3})[^\d]{0,7}(\d{4}).*~', '($1) $2-$3', $number). "\n";
}

And here is a breakdown of the regex:

Cell: +1 999-(555 0001)

.*			zero or more of anything "Cell: +1 "
(\d{3})		three digits "999"
[^\d]{0,7}	zero or up to 7 of something not a digit "-("
(\d{3})		three digits "555"
[^\d]{0,7}	zero or up to 7 of something not a digit " "
(\d{4})		four digits "0001"
.*			zero or more of anything ")"

Updated: March 11, 2015 to use {0,7} instead of {,7}

$data = '+11234567890';

if(  preg_match( '/^\+\d(\d{3})(\d{3})(\d{4})$/', $data,  $matches ) )
{
    $result = $matches[1] . '-' .$matches[2] . '-' . $matches[3];
    return $result;
}

This function will format international (10+ digit), non-international (10 digit) or old school (7 digit) phone numbers. Any numbers other than 10+, 10 or 7 digits will remain unformatted.

function formatPhoneNumber($phoneNumber) {
    $phoneNumber = preg_replace('/[^0-9]/','',$phoneNumber);

    if(strlen($phoneNumber) > 10) {
        $countryCode = substr($phoneNumber, 0, strlen($phoneNumber)-10);
        $areaCode = substr($phoneNumber, -10, 3);
        $nextThree = substr($phoneNumber, -7, 3);
        $lastFour = substr($phoneNumber, -4, 4);

        $phoneNumber = '+'.$countryCode.' ('.$areaCode.') '.$nextThree.'-'.$lastFour;
    }
    else if(strlen($phoneNumber) == 10) {
        $areaCode = substr($phoneNumber, 0, 3);
        $nextThree = substr($phoneNumber, 3, 3);
        $lastFour = substr($phoneNumber, 6, 4);

        $phoneNumber = '('.$areaCode.') '.$nextThree.'-'.$lastFour;
    }
    else if(strlen($phoneNumber) == 7) {
        $nextThree = substr($phoneNumber, 0, 3);
        $lastFour = substr($phoneNumber, 3, 4);

        $phoneNumber = $nextThree.'-'.$lastFour;
    }

    return $phoneNumber;
}

Assuming that your phone numbers always have this exact format, you can use this snippet:

$from = "+11234567890";
$to = sprintf("%s-%s-%s",
              substr($from, 2, 3),
              substr($from, 5, 3),
              substr($from, 8));

Phone numbers are hard. For a more robust, international solution, I would recommend this [well-maintained PHP port][1] of Google's [libphonenumber][2] library.

Using it like this,

use libphonenumber\NumberParseException;
use libphonenumber\PhoneNumber;
use libphonenumber\PhoneNumberFormat;
use libphonenumber\PhoneNumberUtil;

$phoneUtil = PhoneNumberUtil::getInstance();

$numberString = "+12123456789";

try {
    $numberPrototype = $phoneUtil->parse($numberString, "US");

    echo "Input: " .          $numberString . "\n";
    echo "isValid: " .       ($phoneUtil->isValidNumber($numberPrototype) ? "true" : "false") . "\n";
    echo "E164: " .           $phoneUtil->format($numberPrototype, PhoneNumberFormat::E164) . "\n";
    echo "National: " .       $phoneUtil->format($numberPrototype, PhoneNumberFormat::NATIONAL) . "\n";
    echo "International: " .  $phoneUtil->format($numberPrototype, PhoneNumberFormat::INTERNATIONAL) . "\n";
} catch (NumberParseException $e) {
    // handle any errors
}

you will get the following output:

Input: +12123456789
isValid: true
E164: +12123456789
National: (212) 345-6789
International: +1 212-345-6789

I'd recommend using the E164 format for duplicate checks. You could also check whether the number is a actually mobile number or not (using PhoneNumberUtil::getNumberType()), or whether it's even a US number (using PhoneNumberUtil::getRegionCodeForNumber()).

As a bonus, the library can handle pretty much any input. If you, for instance, choose to run 1-800-JETBLUE through the code above, you will get

Input: 1-800-JETBLUE
isValid: true
E164: +18005382583
National: (800) 538-2583
International: +1 800-538-2583

Neato.

It works just as nicely for countries other than the US. Just use another ISO country code in the parse() argument.

It's faster than RegEx.

$input = "0987654321"; 

$output = substr($input, -10, -7) . "-" . substr($input, -7, -4) . "-" . substr($input, -4); 
echo $output;

Here's my USA-only solution, with the area code as an optional component, required delimiter for the extension, and regex comments:

function formatPhoneNumber($s) {
$rx = "/
	(1)?\D*		# optional country code
	(\d{3})?\D*	# optional area code
	(\d{3})\D*	# first three
	(\d{4})		# last four
	(?:\D+|$)	# extension delimiter or EOL
	(\d*)		# optional extension
/x";
preg_match($rx, $s, $matches);
if(!isset($matches[0])) return false;

$country = $matches[1];
$area = $matches[2];
$three = $matches[3];
$four = $matches[4];
$ext = $matches[5];

$out = "$three-$four";
if(!empty($area)) $out = "$area-$out";
if(!empty($country)) $out = "+$country-$out";
if(!empty($ext)) $out .= "x$ext";

// check that no digits were truncated
// if (preg_replace('/\D/', '', $s) != preg_replace('/\D/', '', $out)) return false;
return $out;
}

And here's the script to test it:

$numbers = [
'3334444',
'2223334444',
'12223334444',
'12223334444x5555',
'333-4444',
'(222)333-4444',
'+1 222-333-4444',
'1-222-333-4444ext555',
'cell: (222) 333-4444',
'(222) 333-4444 (cell)',
];

foreach($numbers as $number) {
    print(formatPhoneNumber($number)."<br>\r\n");
}

Here’s my take:

$phone='+11234567890';
$parts=sscanf($phone,'%2c%3c%3c%4c');
print "$parts[1]-$parts[2]-$parts[3]";

//	123-456-7890

The sscanf function takes as a second parameter a format string telling it how to interpret the characters from the first string. In this case, it means 2 characters (%2c), 3 characters, 3 characters, 4 characters.

Normally the sscanf function would also include variables to capture the extracted data. If not, the data is return in an array which I have called $parts.

The print statement outputs the interpolated string. $part[0] is ignored.

I have used a similar function to format Australian phone numbers.

Note that from the perspective of storing the phone number:

• phone numbers are strings
• stored data should not include formatting, such as spaces or hyphens

Don't reinvent the wheel! Import this amazing library:
https://github.com/giggsey/libphonenumber-for-php

$defaultCountry = 'SE'; // Based on the country of the user
$phoneUtil = PhoneNumberUtil::getInstance();
$swissNumberProto = $phoneUtil->parse($phoneNumber, $defaultCountry);

return $phoneUtil->format($swissNumberProto, PhoneNumberFormat::INTERNATIONAL);

It is based on Google's library for parsing, formatting, and validating international phone numbers: https://github.com/google/libphonenumber

Here's a simple function for formatting phone numbers with 7 to 10 digits in a more European (or Swedish?) manner:

function formatPhone($num) {
	$num = preg_replace('/[^0-9]/', '', $num);
	$len = strlen($num);

	if($len == 7) $num = preg_replace('/([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})/', '$1 $2 $3', $num);
	elseif($len == 8) $num = preg_replace('/([0-9]{3})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})/', '$1 - $2 $3', $num);
	elseif($len == 9) $num = preg_replace('/([0-9]{3})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})/', '$1 - $2 $3 $4', $num);
	elseif($len == 10) $num = preg_replace('/([0-9]{3})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})/', '$1 - $2 $3 $4', $num);

	return $num;
}

I see this being possible using either some regex, or a few substr calls (assuming the input is always of that format, and doesn't change length etc.)

something like

$in = "+11234567890"; $output = substr($in,2,3)."-".substr($in,6,3)."-".substr($in,10,4);

should do it.

Try something like:

preg_replace('/\d{3}/', '$0-', str_replace('.', null, trim($number)), 2);

this would take a $number of 8881112222 and convert to 888-111-2222. Hope this helps.

Another option - easily updated to receive a format from configuration.

$numbers = explode("\n", '(111) 222-3333
((111) 222-3333
1112223333
111 222-3333

(111)2223333
+11234567890
    1-8002353551
    123-456-7890   -Hello!
+1 - 1234567890
');
foreach( $numbers AS $number ){
  echo comMember_format::phoneNumber($number) . '<br>';
}

// ************************************************************************
// Format Phone Number
public function phoneNumber( $number ){
  $txt = preg_replace('/[\s\-|\.|\(|\)]/','',$number);
  $format = '[$1?$1 :][$2?($2):x][$3: ]$4[$5: ]$6[$7? $7:]';
  if( preg_match('/^(.*)(\d{3})([^\d]*)(\d{3})([^\d]*)(\d{4})([^\d]{0,1}.*)$/', $txt, $matches) ){
    $result = $format;
    foreach( $matches AS $k => $v ){
      $str = preg_match('/\[\$'.$k.'\?(.*?)\:(.*?)\]|\[\$'.$k.'\:(.*?)\]|(\$'.$k.'){1}/', $format, $filterMatch);
      if( $filterMatch ){
        $result = str_replace( $filterMatch[0], (!isset($filterMatch[3]) ? (strlen($v) ? str_replace( '$'.$k, $v, $filterMatch[1] ) : $filterMatch[2]) : (strlen($v) ? $v : (isset($filterMatch[4]) ? '' : (isset($filterMatch[3]) ? $filterMatch[3] : '')))), $result );
      }
    }
    return $result;
  }
  return $number;
}

All,

I think I fixed it. Working for current input files and have following 2 functions to get this done!

Notice I have this in a class lib, so thus the "self::validate_phone_number" call from the first function/method.

Notice line # 32 of the "validate_phone_number" function where I added the:

			if ( !$valid['format'] ) {
			return false;
		} else {

to get me the false return needed if not valid phone number.

Still need to test this against more data, but working on current data, with current format and I'm using style '8' for this particular data batch.

Also I commented out the "extension" logic as I was constantly getting errors from it, seeing I do not have any of that info in my data.

this takes 7, 10 and 11 digit, removes additional characters and adds dashes by going right to left through the string. change the dash to a space or dot.

$raw_phone = preg_replace('/\D/', '', $raw_phone);
$temp = str_split($raw_phone);
$phone_number = "";
for ($x=count($temp)-1;$x>=0;$x--) {
    if ($x === count($temp) - 5 || $x === count($temp) - 8 || $x === count($temp) - 11) {
        $phone_number = "-" . $phone_number;
    }
    $phone_number = $temp[$x] . $phone_number;
}
echo $phone_number;

I know the OP is requesting a 123-456-7890 format, but, based on John Dul's answer, I modified it to return the phone number in parentheses format, e.g. (123) 456-7890. This one only handles 7 and 10 digit numbers.

function format_phone_string( $raw_number ) {

	// remove everything but numbers
	$raw_number = preg_replace( '/\D/', '', $raw_number );

	// split each number into an array
	$arr_number = str_split($raw_number);

	// add a dummy value to the beginning of the array
	array_unshift( $arr_number, 'dummy' );

	// remove the dummy value so now the array keys start at 1
	unset($arr_number[0]);

	// get the number of numbers in the number
	$num_number = count($arr_number);

	// loop through each number backward starting at the end
	for ( $x = $num_number; $x >= 0; $x-- ) {

    	if ( $x === $num_number - 4 ) {
			// before the fourth to last number

        	$phone_number = "-" . $phone_number;
    	}
    	else if ( $x === $num_number - 7 && $num_number > 7 ) {
	    	// before the seventh to last number
	    	// and only if the number is more than 7 digits

        	$phone_number = ") " . $phone_number;
    	}
    	else if ( $x === $num_number - 10 ) {
	    	// before the tenth to last number

        	$phone_number = "(" . $phone_number;
    	}

		// concatenate each number (possibly with modifications) back on
    	$phone_number = $arr_number[$x] . $phone_number;
	}

	return $phone_number;
}

United Kingdom Phone Formats

For the application I developed, I found that people entered their phone number 'correctly' from a human readable form, but inserted varous random characters such as '-' '/' '+44' etc. The problem was that the cloud app that it needed to talk to was quite specific about the format. Rather than use a regular expression (can be frustrating for the user) I created an object class which processes the entered number into the correct format before being processed by the persistence module.

The format of the output ensures that any receiving software interprets the output as text rather than an integer (which would then immediately lose the leading zero) and the format is consistent with British Telecoms guidelines on number formatting - which also aids human memorability by dividing a long number into small, easily memorised, groups.

+441234567890 produces (01234) 567 890
02012345678 produces (020) 1234 5678
1923123456 produces (01923) 123 456
01923123456 produces (01923) 123 456
01923hello this is text123456 produces (01923) 123 456

The significance of the exchange segment of the number - in parentheses - is that in the UK, and most other countries, calls between numbers in the same exchange can be made omitting the exchange segment. This does not apply to 07, 08 and 09 series phone numbers however.

I'm sure that there are more efficient solutions, but this one has proved extremely reliable. More formats can easily be accomodated by adding to the teleNum function at the end.

The procedure is invoked from the calling script thus

$telephone = New Telephone;
$formattedPhoneNumber = $telephone->toIntegerForm($num)

`

<?php
class   Telephone 
{   
    public function toIntegerForm($num) {
        /*
         * This section takes the number, whatever its format, and purifies it to just digits without any space or other characters
         * This ensures that the formatter only has one type of input to deal with
         */
        $number = str_replace('+44', '0', $num);
        $length = strlen($number);
        $digits = '';
        $i=0;
        while ($i<$length){
            $digits .= $this->first( substr($number,$i,1) , $i);
            $i++;
        }
        if (strlen($number)<10) {return '';}
        return $this->toTextForm($digits);
    }
    public function toTextForm($number) {
        
        /*

         * 
         */
        if (substr($number,0,1) == '+') { return $number; }
        $group = substr($number,0,2);

This is for UK landlines without the Country Code

function format_phone_number($number) {
    $result = preg_replace('~.*(\d{2})[^\d]{0,7}(\d{4})[^\d]{0,7}(\d{4}).*~', '$1 $2 $3', $number);
    return $result;
}

Result:

2012345678
becomes
20 1234 5678

Please have a look at substr based function that can change formats

function phone(string $in): string
{
    $FORMAT_PHONE = [1,3,3,4];
    $result =[];
    $position = 0;
    foreach ($FORMAT_PHONE as $key => $item){
        $result[] = substr($in, $position, $item);
        $position += $item;
    }
    return '+'.implode('-',$result);
}

Check Phone number

$phone = '+385 99 1234 1234'

$str = preg_match('/^\+?\d{1,3}[\s-]?\d{1,3}[\s-]?\d{1,4}[\s-]?\d{1,4}$/', $phone);

if($str){
return true;
}else{
return false;
}

This is a little function I use for a lot of my code. I know this SO question is pretty old, but I stumbled on it while looking for something else so figured maybe this would help someone else, idk...

/**
