Calling 570 numbers legally

Pennsylvania is stricter than federal law. Pennsylvania bars telemarketing calls on legal holidays and restricts Sunday calls (no calls before midday), with tighter hours for autodialed and prerecorded calls. Because the window follows the called party's local time, a 570 number is governed by Pennsylvania rules no matter where you are dialing from. Autodialed and prerecorded calls face tighter limits than the general windows shown here.

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.
