Which countries can I fax to?

Updated on:

The short answer

CaptainFax sends to landline fax numbers in seven countries: Canada, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal and France. The destination is chosen in the first field of the form.

Each country has its own page with numbering notes: see the destinations list. To look up a dial code for any other country, use the international dial-code directory.

The seven destinations

Faxing is possible to Canada, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal and France. In every case the receiving number has to be a landline attached to a fax machine, or else to a fax server.

The service is operated from France, so French VAT is included in the prices, whichever country you send to. The price does not depend on the destination.

Picking the destination

Start by choosing the country. The number can then go in as you would dial it locally, or in international form. The prefix is handled by the form, and the number checker can tell you whether a number looks valid before you pay.

Each country page explains the local number format and where fax lines are still common.

Mind the clock

Many recipients only have their fax machine switched on during office hours, or check it at set times. Before sending to Canada, remember that it spans several time zones. The world clock shows office hours for each destination.

Outside the seven countries, the international dial-code directory lists dial codes so that you can still find the right prefix for a call, but a fax to those countries cannot be sent from here.

Worth remembering

  • Canada, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal and France.
  • Landline fax numbers only.
  • Same prices for every destination.
