Email Regex

A practical email validation regex, tested against valid and invalid addresses, with code snippets. Free and private: runs in your browser.

Paste addresses (one per line) to test them against the same rule browsers use for type="email".

Runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded or stored.

Use cases

  • Find a syntax error before the build or deploy fails.
  • Check config files in code review.
  • Learn the rules your linter enforces.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my regex reject valid emails?

Common mistakes are forbidding + in the local part, limiting TLDs to 2–4 letters, or rejecting subdomains. This pattern allows all of those.

Is the Email Regex free?

Yes. It is free with no sign-up, and it runs entirely in your browser, so your input is never uploaded or stored.

What should I do with the issues it reports?

Fix high-severity items first; they usually break builds or deployments. Lower-severity items are style and best-practice suggestions.
