Number format

How do I write Cook Islands numbers for a bulk SMS list?

If people in Cook Islands dial a domestic trunk prefix such as 0 at the start, leave it out after the calling code. A number written this way looks like +682 55 123. Spaces and dashes are fine; the console removes them when it reads your list.
