How to use it

Normalize Japanese-looking phone-number strings line by line into a digits-only domestic form or +81 international form. It is useful for cleaning inconsistent CSV or contact-list formatting before comparison or import.

  1. Paste one phone number per line.
  2. Choose domestic 09012345678 or international +819012345678 output.
  3. Run the cleanup and review every line marked ⚠ Check against the source data.
Removed
hyphens, spaces, parentheses and other separators
Domestic
digits beginning with 0
+81
replaces the domestic leading 0 with +81
Warning
⚠ Check for lines outside a simple Japanese 10/11-digit shape

090-1234-5678 can become 09012345678 or +819012345678

If one CSV contains hyphens, another contains spaces and another uses +81, the tool can make the representation more consistent before deduplication or import.

This is formatting cleanup, not telephone-number verification. A line without a warning is not proof that the number is assigned, active or owned by the expected person.

Useful before merging contact data

Consistent punctuation and country-code style make string comparison and duplicate checks much easier across CRM exports or spreadsheets.

Japanese +81 form drops the domestic leading zero

A domestic 090 number becomes +8190..., not +81090.... This is the common international representation.

⚠ Check means manual review is needed

The warning is based on a simple domestic-shape check. The tool does not guess the correct area code or repair an incomplete number.

Keep extensions and notes in separate fields

Text such as “ext. 123” or labels mixed into the same cell can leave extra digits after cleanup. Separate the core phone number from notes before normalization.

Spot-check multiple number types after a bulk cleanup

Review mobile, landline and special-service examples before replacing source data, especially when the input came from several systems.
