This free Indonesian HLR lookup shows whether an Indonesian mobile number is active.
An HLR lookup asks a mobile number's own network whether the SIM is switched on and reachable. Enter an Indonesian mobile number above, with Indonesia already selected, and 1Lookup's free tool returns its status, its country and whether it was ported, without sending an SMS. It needs no signup.
Pick the country, then enter the number without the country code.
Free & rate-limited. No signup required to try.

An HLR lookup answers only for mobile numbers, so check that an Indonesian number has the shape of a mobile before you ask.
Only mobile lines have an entry in a Home Location Register. These are Indonesia's rules from the numbering data.
| Number | What the digits show | What the HLR lookup does |
|---|---|---|
| An Indonesian mobile | A mobile number has 9 to 12 digits after +62, starting 08. | Asks the network whether the SIM is on and reachable. Outside the US and Canada the answer usually comes live from the network. |
| An Indonesian landline | A landline has 7 to 11 digits after +62, starting 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07 or 09, such as +62 21 XXXXXXX. | No status comes back, because a landline has no entry in a Home Location Register. Use the Indonesian phone number checker for its line type. |
These are the answers an HLR lookup gives for an Indonesian mobile number, and what to do with each.
The status is the headline of every result. A record read instead of a live query never says that the phone is on.
| Status | What the network is saying | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Active / reachable | The SIM is registered on a network and can receive a call or SMS now. | Safe to message or call. |
| Temporarily unreachable | The number exists, but the phone may be off or out of coverage. | Keep it and retry later, because it is not a bad number. |
| No active line | The network reports no subscriber on this number. | Remove it from the list. |
| Invalid or not in service | The records have no assigned number like this one. | Remove it from the list, and check the digits first. |
| Assigned | A record shows the number is assigned, and it does not show that the phone is on. | Treat it as a number in use, and check its line type before you text it. |
| Unknown | The network gave no usable answer. | Treat it as unresolved, never as invalid, and check it again later. |
An Indonesian mobile number is +62 followed by 9 to 12 digits, and the first one is 8.

The +62 and the 0 do the same job, so a number is never written with both.
An HLR lookup of an Indonesian mobile number travels to its network and stops before anything reaches the phone.
This is the path one lookup takes. Outside the US and Canada the answer usually comes from the network that holds the number, which is why it says whether the SIM is on right now.
- You enter the numberType it the way it is written at home, such as 0812-345-678, or paste it with +62. It has to be a mobile.
- Its format is checkedEach type of number has its own rules. A mobile needs 9 to 12 digits after +62 and starts with 08 at home.
- The number's own network is askedThe query goes to the network that holds the number and stops before any message is delivered.Stops here: no SMS is delivered and the phone never rings.
- You see the statusActive, temporarily unreachable, no active line or unknown, with the country and the ported flag.
An Indonesian mobile number has 9 to 12 digits after +62 and starts with 08, so any other length is not a valid mobile.
These lengths come from the numbering data for Indonesia.
| Number type | Starts with at home | Digits after +62 | Written at home |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mobile | 08 | 9 to 12 | 0812-345-678 |
| Landline | 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07 or 09 | 7 to 11 | (021) XXXXXXX |
Three common mistakes make an Indonesian number fail the check, and each one is quick to fix.
Keeping the 0 after +62 adds a digit.
The 0 is only for dialing inside Indonesia, so +62 0812 345 678 is wrong. Drop the 0 and write +62 812 345 678.
Typing too few or too many digits makes a number invalid.
A mobile number has 9 to 12 digits after +62. With fewer than 9 or more than 12 it cannot be a valid mobile, and inside that range the first digits decide how many are needed, so look for a missing or doubled digit.
Leaving the wrong country selected changes how the number is read.
The lookup reads a number by the rules of the country selected above, so keep Indonesia selected for a +62 number. Paste a number with its + and country code and the country is read from the number itself.
These are the questions people ask most about HLR lookups of Indonesian phone numbers.
How do I check if an Indonesian mobile number is active?
Enter the number in the box above with Indonesia selected. Type it the way it is written at home, such as 0812-345-678, or with the country code, such as +62812345678. The free tool returns its status, its country and the ported flag, and an active status means the SIM is registered and reachable.
How many digits is an Indonesian mobile number?
A mobile number has 9 to 12 digits after +62, starting 08.
Can an HLR lookup check an Indonesian landline?
No. Only mobile lines have an entry in a Home Location Register, so a landline cannot return a connectivity status. A landline has 7 to 11 digits after +62, starting 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07 or 09, such as +62 21 XXXXXXX. The Indonesian phone number checker gives the line type of any number.
Does the free HLR lookup show which network an Indonesian number is on?
The free result shows the status, the country and the ported flag. The current and original carrier come with a free account.
Does an HLR lookup show whether an Indonesian number was ported?
Yes. The Ported row reads Yes or No when the network answered, and Unknown when it gave no answer. Unknown is not the same as No.
What does temporarily unreachable mean for an Indonesian mobile number?
The number exists, but the phone may be off or out of coverage right now. That is not the same as an invalid number, so keep it and check it again later.
Is the answer live for Indonesian numbers?
Outside the US and Canada a mobile number usually gets a live answer from the network that holds it. When the lookup reads number records instead, the result says assigned, which means the number is in use and not that the phone is on.
Can I run an HLR lookup on a whole list of Indonesian mobile numbers?
Yes. This free tool checks one number at a time. A 7-day free trial opens CSV upload and the API, at 5 credits a number, and a number the network reports as invalid is not charged.
Does the person know I ran an HLR lookup on their number?
No. No SMS is sent and the phone never rings, so its owner is never told.
You can check mobile numbers from other countries on their own pages.
