How to Create a Phone Number QR Code

A phone number QR code makes it effortless for anyone to call you. Instead of manually typing a number, the person scanning the code gets taken directly to their phone dialer. This is particularly valuable in contexts where speed matters, such as emergency contacts, roadside assistance numbers, or customer hotlines printed on products.

Steps to Generate Your QR Code

  1. Enter the phone number with the international country code (e.g., +1 555 123 4567).
  2. The QR code preview appears instantly.
  3. Scan the code with your phone to verify it dials the correct number.
  4. Download and print the code wherever you need it.

Common Use Cases

  • Business cards — provide a quick-dial option alongside your printed number.
  • Storefronts — display a QR code in the window so passersby can call after hours.
  • Emergency signs — place in buildings, elevators, or public spaces for fast emergency dialing.
  • Vehicle signage — let potential customers call your business from a van or truck wrap.

About the tel: Format

Phone QR codes use the tel: URI scheme defined in RFC 3966. The phone number is encoded in E.164 format with the international dialing prefix. When scanned, mobile operating systems detect the tel: scheme and open the native dialer. The user must tap the call button to initiate the call, so there is no risk of accidental dialing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens when someone scans a phone QR code?
The phone dialer opens with the encoded number pre-filled. The user simply taps the call button to connect. The call is not initiated automatically — the scanner always has to confirm.
Should I include the country code?
Yes. Always include the international country code (e.g., +1 for US, +44 for UK, +91 for India) so the QR code works for anyone scanning it regardless of their location.
Does this work on landlines and toll-free numbers?
It works with any dialable phone number, including landlines, mobile numbers, toll-free numbers, and even short codes. The tel: URI scheme is universally supported by all phone operating systems.
Can I track how many people call via the QR code?
A static QR code does not provide analytics on its own. To track calls, consider using a dedicated tracking number or a dynamic QR code service that logs scan events.
