Fax number format in the United States
A United States fax number has 10 digits: a 3-digit area code followed by a 7-digit local number.
Most areas now require 10-digit dialling even for local calls. A leading 1 is only the long-distance prefix and is never part of the number — from abroad, dial +1 followed by the 10 digits.

Faxing in United States
The U.S. is fax’s biggest single market: healthcare (HIPAA made fax a compliance-friendly channel), legal, real estate and government all still move documents by fax — the IRS, Social Security and the VA accept faxed paperwork, and every congressional office publishes a fax number.
Because a fax transmission report is timestamped, U.S. courts and contracts treat it as evidence of timely sending — a big reason fax survived the email era.
No international prefixes to worry about: U.S. numbers are just 1 + the ten-digit number.
