Implementation Guide

Install libphonenumber-js once, then use it anywhere in your Next.js app.

1. Install

npm install libphonenumber-js

2. Parse a phone number

import { parsePhoneNumber } from "libphonenumber-js";

const phone = parsePhoneNumber("+14155552671");
console.log(phone.country);          // "US"
console.log(phone.nationalNumber);   // "4155552671"
console.log(phone.isValid());        // true

3. Format output types

import { parsePhoneNumber } from "libphonenumber-js";

const phone = parsePhoneNumber("+14155552671");

phone.format("E.164");          // "+14155552671"
phone.format("INTERNATIONAL"); // "+1 415 555 2671"
phone.format("NATIONAL");      // "(415) 555-2671"
phone.format("RFC3966");        // "tel:+14155552671"

4. Validate

import { isValidPhoneNumber } from "libphonenumber-js";

isValidPhoneNumber("+14155552671");      // true
isValidPhoneNumber("+14155552671", "US"); // true
isValidPhoneNumber("0412345678", "AU");  // true
isValidPhoneNumber("123", "US");         // false

5. API Route (Next.js)

// app/api/validate-phone/route.ts
import { isValidPhoneNumber, parsePhoneNumber } from "libphonenumber-js";
import { NextResponse } from "next/server";

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const { phone, country } = await req.json();

  if (!isValidPhoneNumber(phone, country)) {
    return NextResponse.json({ valid: false }, { status: 400 });
  }

  const parsed = parsePhoneNumber(phone, country);
  return NextResponse.json({
    valid: true,
    e164: parsed.format("E.164"),
    international: parsed.format("INTERNATIONAL"),
    national: parsed.format("NATIONAL"),
    country: parsed.country,
  });
}

6. React validation hook

// hooks/use-phone-validation.ts
"use client";
import { isValidPhoneNumber, parsePhoneNumber, CountryCode } from "libphonenumber-js";

export function usePhoneValidation(value: string, country: CountryCode) {
  const isValid = value.length > 3 && isValidPhoneNumber(value, country);
  const parsed = isValid ? parsePhoneNumber(value, country) : null;
  return {
    isValid,
    e164: parsed?.format("E.164") ?? null,
    international: parsed?.format("INTERNATIONAL") ?? null,
    national: parsed?.format("NATIONAL") ?? null,
  };
}

Implementation tips

—Store as E.164. Always store phone numbers in E.164 format in your database. It is the only unambiguous, globally unique representation.
—Use the min bundle. Import from libphonenumber-js/min to reduce bundle size by ~40 %.
—Display nationally. When showing a number to a user in their own country, use NATIONAL format. For cross-border, use INTERNATIONAL.
—Server-side validation. Never trust client-side validation alone. Validate E.164 format server-side before saving. The API route example above is the recommended pattern.
