Hi Michele, 

It's not so easy, because there are many codes inside a country.
For example, switzerland: 

+41 79 xxx xx xx

But for voice boxes :
+41 860 xx xxx xx xx

Special services 
+41 [8-9]xx xxx xx xx

 
The idea would be a syntax to allow the country specific need to be
applied (aka numbering plan).

Best regards
