E.164 is the international telephone numbering plan that ensures each device on the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) has a globally unique number. This allows phone calls and text messages to be correctly routed to individual phones/devices in different countries.

E.164 numbers are formatted [+] [country code] [subscriber number including area code] and can have a maximum of fifteen digits.

e.g. +3222999696 is made up as follows:
[+] [Country Code:32] [Subscriber Number:22999696]

RFC3966 format is the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) scheme for telephone numbers and has the following syntax:

tel:+44-7732-781xxx
