Numbers that are not amounts, such as phone numbers, house numbers, and years do not usually have commas. It can get confusing as many other countries (such as Spain) use commas in numbers instead of a decimal point, e.g. 100,01 instead of 100.01.

Scientific standards, agreed by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM), say that spaces should be used instead of commas due to its different international usage. “Spaces in thousands works well. Unequivocally, there can’t be any argument about this – commas are wrong.”

For example, “1,500” is a number that’s in the thousands, but it would be written out as “one thousand five hundred.”…More Practice With Large Numbers.

Using Commas with Numbers In countries like the US, UK, and China, commas are used with large numbers to make them easier to read. A comma is placed every 3 decimal places for numbers larger than 999. The decimal point is shown with a period (full stop).

Write thousands as 60,000, not 60K. 8. Use a comma for tens of thousands or more: 9000; 12,000; 50,000. 9.

Canada is particularly tricky: Quebec uses the system in France (no commas for large numbers with commas for small numbers) while the rest of Canada uses the method popular in Australia (no commas for large numbers with decimals for small numbers).

“The Canadian Metric Practice Guide (CAN/CSA-Z234. 1-89) of the Canadian Standards Association specifies that groups of three numerals (triads) shall be separated by a space, except in the case of monetary values. It advises against the use of commas as separators.
