| Expression |
^((1[1-9]|2[03489]|3[0347]|5[56]|7[04-9]|8[047]|9[018])\d{8}|(1[2-9]\d|[58]00)\d{6}|8(001111|45464\d))$ |
| Description |
Step 3: Validate the NSN produced from the pattern in step 2 and check it for length and validity. The pattern here is fairly basic. More detailed patterns for each number type are available elsewhere.
Step 4 is to format the number correctly. This needs a variety of RegEx patterns each based on the initial digits and number length.
