Phone number format

Belgium mobile numbers are written locally as 0470 12 34 56 and internationally as +32470123456. The leading 0 is a national prefix: we drop it when we add +32, so local-format numbers work if you also send the country.

Data protection

Personal data in Belgium is governed by the GDPR and the Belgian Data Protection Act. Phone verification stores only a salted hash of each code; check your own obligations as the data controller.
