Calling 812 numbers legally

Indiana is stricter than federal law. For automated and prerecorded calls, Indiana's Autodialer Law bars delivery before 9 a.m. or after 8 p.m.: a 9 a.m.-8 p.m. window. Because the window follows the called party's local time, a 812 number is governed by Indiana 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.
