How many international destinations does FaxOnWeb support?

The checkout country selector currently lists 16 supported destinations. Use that selector as the current source of truth before preparing the number.

Why must I choose between the United States and Canada if both use +1?

Both countries belong to the +1 numbering plan. Choosing the intended destination sets +1, but the selection alone does not distinguish the country or perform country-specific validation. Verify the area code and recipient fax number before paying.

Can I receive an international fax with FaxOnWeb?

No. FaxOnWeb only sends outbound faxes and does not provide a receiving number, virtual fax number, email-to-fax, or fax broadcasting.

International fax guide

Choose the destination, enter the fax number with its country code, and review the details before authorizing payment.

Start with the destination country

FaxOnWeb currently supports the 16 destinations shown in the checkout country selector. The selector supplies the international dialing code used to normalize the number. Choose the intended destination, then verify the complete international number because countries that share a dialing code still require you to check the area code and recipient line.

Three checks before you send

Select a supported destination: Choose one of the 16 countries currently listed in checkout. The selection sets the dialing code, but it does not independently prove which country a number belongs to when that code is shared.
Use the international number format: Include the destination country code. Where the country's dialing convention uses a domestic trunk prefix 0, remove that 0 after the international country code.
Review the country and number together: Confirm that the selected country, country code, area code, and recipient fax number agree before you authorize the PayPal payment.

International fax number examples

Use these country-specific rules as a formatting guide. The digits after the area code still need to be the recipient's actual fax number.

United States: select United States and use +1 followed by the area code and subscriber number.
Canada: select Canada and use +1 followed by the area code and subscriber number. Canada and the United States share +1, so verify the area code and actual recipient fax line; the country selection alone does not distinguish them.
United Kingdom: use +44 and omit the domestic trunk 0; for example, a number beginning 020 becomes +44 20 followed by the remaining digits.
Germany: use +49 and omit the leading 0 from the area code; for example, 030 becomes +49 30.
Japan: use +81 and omit the leading 0 from the area code; for example, 03 becomes +81 3.
France: use +33 and omit the leading 0 from the domestic number; for example, 01 becomes +33 1.
Australia: use +61 and omit the domestic trunk 0; for example, 02 becomes +61 2.
