Telephone
Codes
Steve Kropla maintains a comprehensive list
of international dialing codes. The table provides a list
of all the countries in the world, their country dialing
code (the prefix you would use to call a number in that
country eg. The US is +1, while the UK is +44) and their
international and local direct dialing codes (the prefix
you would use in a country to dial internationally or
locally – the
international direct dialing code in South Africa is 09,
while the local direct dialing code is 0). Thus to phone
the US from South Africa, you would dial 09-1-number,
while to phone the UK, you would dial 09-44-number.
In addition, you can click on any country in the table
and get a comprehensive list of the main city dialing
codes in that country (including mobile/cellular operators).

This site combines some of the features
of Steve Kropla’s
site and that of International Numbering Plans. Click
here to visit the site. It is worth a visit if the other
two can’t help you. It has a useful reverse look-up,
if you know the country code, but don’t know what
country it refers to – reverse look up.
