Virginia virtual phone numbers

Virginia has specific telemarketing laws that businesses must comply with to avoid penalties.

• Telemarketers must adhere to calling hours of 8 AM to 9 PM local time and may not initiate solicitation calls to numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry; the Virginia Telephone Privacy Protection Act also requires telemarketers to maintain their own internal do not call list for 10 years, as outlined by Va. Code §59.1-514.

Virginia's economic outlook for 2026 is complex, with the state's position as the data center capital of the world and its defense technology concentration driving growth even as federal workforce reductions create headwinds.

• Data Center and Technology: Virginia hosts the largest data center market in the world, including approximately 35% of all known hyperscale data centers globally, concentrated in Northern Virginia's "Data Center Alley." The industry contributes an estimated 74,000 jobs, $5.5 billion in labor income, and $9.1 billion in GDP to the state economy. However, the $1.6 billion annual tax exemption for data centers became a flashpoint in 2026, with lawmakers considering 61 related bills.
