Calling 225 numbers legally

Louisiana is stricter than federal law. Louisiana bars solicitation calls on Sundays and legal holidays and limits them to 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday-Saturday. Because the window follows the called party's local time, a 225 number is governed by Louisiana rules no matter where you are dialing from.

Ringless voicemail sits under the same rules as a live call, which is why TCPA compliance matters before you drop to a list. To check a whole list rather than one code, the phone number formatter tags every number with its state so you can segment sends by time zone.
