Find a country code to place an international call with your phone card
May 25, 2008 - 10:52pm — aimeeWhere can I find the country code for where I'm calling to?
ZapTel has put together a quick reference of the world's country codes to help you dial a phone number outside the U.S.
Click here to see the list of international calling codes.
When placing a call from the U.S. to an international location, you'll need to dial like this:
011 + Country Code + City Code + Number
However, some countries dial just like you would if you were calling the U.S. On our list of country codes, these are listed with a 1 + a 3-digit country code. This 3-digit country code is the equivalent of a U.S. area code.
For example, if you're calling to Guam, you'd dial like this:
1 + 671 + Number
An important thing to remember when dialing from the U.S. is that if someone gives you a phone number and they put 00 in front of the country code, you do not need to dial the 00. For example, if someone gives you a phone number to dial in the UK and it looks like this...
+0044 9999 888 777
...you do not need to dial the 00 in front of the 44. Here's how you would dial this number from the U.S.:
011 + 44 + 9999 + 888 + 777
