Verify Government Callers with Official Connecticut Phone Directories
Before you return a call from a Connecticut agency, court or county office, look up its official number in Connecticut Government Directories and Connecticut State Employee Phone Directory.
Connecticut Government Directories
The CT.gov Directories page gathers Connecticut's official directories for finding a phone number at a state, town or federal office. State Resources has the state employee search form, a list of employees by agency, the Judicial Branch directory, House and Senate member lists, and CT 211.
Municipal directories list each town's assessor, chief executive officer, chief financial officer and tax collector. Check a call about local taxes with the tax collector here. Other links cover Connecticut's members of Congress, the Connecticut State Colleges directory, the UConn phonebook and all state departments and agencies.
Connecticut State Employee Phone Directory
Connecticut's state employee telephone directory looks up a Connecticut state employee's phone number by last name, first name or both, across All Agencies or just one. If you're unsure of the spelling, set Last Name Match to "any part of field." Ticking the email box can also catch people whose last name has changed.
Display Agency Contact Info gives each office's main contact, the number to call when you want to check a caller's story. Some agency information is incomplete. If you can't find what you need, CT.gov's help line is 860-622-2200 during business hours.
Is Reverse Phone Lookup Legal in Connecticut?
Yes. Connecticut does not restrict the personal use of reverse phone lookup services, and residents benefit from one of the more actively enforced state privacy laws in the country. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) prohibits using lookup results for employment, tenant, or credit decisions nationwide. Connecticut's CTDPA builds on these federal protections.
What Connecticut's Privacy Law Means for Lookup Services
The Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA, Pub. Act 22-15, as amended by Pub. Act 23-16) has been in effect since July 1, 2023 and was strengthened again in 2025. Connecticut residents can opt out of the sale of their personal data and targeted advertising, and have rights to access, correct, delete, and port their information - all with a 45-day response window. Nonprofits are generally exempt.
What distinguishes Connecticut is active enforcement: the state Attorney General published a public compliance enforcement report in early 2024, one of the first state AGs to do so. Businesses operating in Connecticut know enforcement is real, which in practice tends to improve compliance with opt-out requests.

How to opt out of phone number lookup services in Connecticut?
Under the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA), you can request removal of your phone number and associated data. Visit each reverse lookup site and click "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" to submit a deletion request.
How to tell if a Connecticut caller is a real business?

To confirm a specific company exists, search the Connecticut Business Inquiry, the state’s official business entity registry.
