List of country calling codes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of country calling codes defined by ITU-T recommendation E.164.
The telephone numbering plan for a telephone system includes an international dialing prefix, such as "00" or "011", which must be dialed before the country calling code when dialing an international phone number. Generally, as in the list below, the need for this prefix is indicated with a "+".
[edit] At a glance
Country calling codes form a prefix code, hence they can be organized as a tree:

[edit] In depth
While there is a general geographic grouping to the zones, many exceptions exist for various political and historical reasons. Thus, the geographical indicators below are approximations only.
[edit] Zone 1 – North American Numbering Plan Area
Areas within NANPA (North American Numbering Plan Area) are assigned area codes as if they were all areas within one country. The codes below in format +1-XXX represent area code XXX within the +1 NANPA zone — not a separate country code.

[edit] History
CCITT, the predecessor of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T), developed the first formal list of telephone country codes. This list was included in the 1964 CCITT Blue Book, among other international telecommunication recommendations, which would eventually become ITU-T recommendation E.164.
An earlier system of country codes for European use was mentioned in the 1960 CCITT Red Book. Some of these country codes were retained in the CCITT country code assignments and remain in effect (e.g. France +33, United Kingdom +44).
For further details on country code history and development, see History of Country Codes (WTNG).

The country code for all NANP countries is 1; the numbers that follow are used in the same way as area codes are in the U.S. and Canada.
- ^ a b Russia and Kazakhstan make up the Seventh World Numbering Zone. From August 2007, Kazakhstan changed all area codes to start with 7; however, 6 is also reserved for Kazakhstan. Digits 3, 4, 5 and 9 are reserved for Russia. Usage of 8 is mixed, but internationally accessible numbers starting with 8 only exist in Russia. Numbers starting with 0, 1 and 2 are not internationally accessible (access codes and similar arrangements).
