WhatsApp link generator for Nigeria
Paste a Nigeria mobile number in whatever shape you have it, and get a click-to-chat link that actually opens. The +234 country code, the national trunk zero and the digits-only format WhatsApp insists on are all handled for you.
How a Nigeria number becomes a WhatsApp link
A wa.me link carries the full international number as bare digits — no plus sign, no spaces, no dashes, and no leading zero. For Nigeria that means the 234 country code followed by the 10-digit national number.
| Part | Value |
|---|---|
| Country code | +234 |
| National digits | 10 |
| Dialled locally | 08021234567 |
| In the link | 2348021234567 |
| Finished link | https://wa.me/2348021234567 |
Three steps
- Pick Nigeria so the +234 country code is applied.
- Type the mobile number as you would dial it at home — the leading zero is removed for you.
- Copy the link, or download the QR code to print.
Nigeria questions
Should I include the leading zero?
No. A trunk zero only exists for dialling inside the country. Type it if that is how you have the number written down — it is stripped automatically — but it must never appear in the finished link.
Does the plus sign belong in the link?
No. +234 is how the number is written for people; a wa.me link takes digits only, so it starts with 234.
How many digits should a Nigeria number have?
10 after the +234 country code. A number that comes out shorter or longer than that is the single most common reason a click-to-chat link opens WhatsApp and then reports an invalid number.
