Popular Country Calling Codes

Quick answers for the most-searched codes. Looking for a complete country code list? The searchable table in the tool above lists every international calling code — 230+ countries and territories. The meaning of a country calling code is simply the numeric prefix that routes your call to the right country: dial it right after your international exit code. Note: Dubai is a city, not a country — its country calling code is +971, the code of the United Arab Emirates. Likewise "country calling code of USA" is +1, "of UK" is +44, "of Australia" is +61, "of India" is +91 and "of Canada" is +1.

How to Dial an International Number

  1. Start with the exit code — 00 in most of the world, 011 from the US and Canada. On a mobile, just hold 0 to type + instead.
  2. Add the country calling code — e.g. 44 for the UK, 62 for Indonesia, 1 for the USA.
  3. Drop the domestic trunk 0 — the leading zero is for local calls only. The UK's 07700 900123 becomes +44 7700 900123; Australia's 0412 345 678 becomes +61 412 345 678.
  4. Dial the rest of the number as given.

So a full international number looks like: + [country code] [number without trunk 0] — for example +44 7700 900123 or +62 812 345 6789.

Special Non-Geographic Codes

Not every + prefix is a country. These service codes work internationally but belong to no single nation:

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a country calling code?

A country calling code (also called a country dial code) is the 1–3 digit prefix you dial after the international exit code to reach a phone number in another country. For example, +62 is Indonesia and +44 is the United Kingdom. Codes are assigned by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) under standard E.164, so they are the same worldwide no matter which carrier you use.

How can I find out which country a phone number is from?

Paste the full international number into the Reverse Lookup tab above — for example +62 812 345 6789. The tool strips the exit prefix, matches the longest country-code prefix, and shows the country plus its capital, currency, driving side and number format. For North American (+1) numbers, include the area code (e.g. +1 340…) to identify the exact territory.

What country is +62?

+62 is Indonesia. Its capital is Jakarta, the currency is the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR), and traffic drives on the left.

+44 — which country is calling?

+44 is the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland). Note that Guernsey (+44 1481), Jersey (+44 1534) and the Isle of Man (+44 1624) also use +44 with their own area codes.

Which country uses country code +1?

+1 is shared by the North American Numbering Plan (NANP): the United States, Canada, and about 20 Caribbean and Pacific territories including Jamaica, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico and Guam. The area code after +1 identifies the specific place — for example +1 876 is Jamaica and +1 340 is the U.S. Virgin Islands.

What is the country calling code for the USA?

The USA uses +1, shared with Canada and other NANP members. To call the US from most countries dial 00 1 (or +1 on a mobile), then the 10-digit number.

What is the country calling code for Australia?

Australia is +61. To call an Australian mobile, drop the leading 0 from the domestic number: for example 0412 345 678 becomes +61 412 345 678.

What is the country calling code for Japan?

Japan is +81. Like most countries, drop the domestic trunk 0 when dialing internationally: 090-1234-5678 becomes +81 90 1234 5678.

What is the country calling code for India?

India is +91.

What is the country calling code for England / the UK?

England is part of the United Kingdom, which uses +44.

What is the country calling code for Canada?

Canada uses +1, shared with the United States under the North American Numbering Plan.

What are the country calling codes for Germany, France, Spain and Italy?

Germany is +49, France is +33, Spain is +34 and Italy is +39. The full searchable list of 230+ codes is in the table above.

How do I dial an international phone number?

Dial your country's international exit code (00 in most of the world, 011 from the US/Canada), then the country calling code, then the local number without its domestic trunk 0. On a mobile phone you can simply hold 0 to get + and dial +[country code][number] — for example +44 7700 900123.

Should I dial the 0 in front of the area code when calling internationally?

No. The leading 0 (trunk prefix) is only used for domestic calls. Drop it when dialing internationally: the UK number 07700 900123 becomes +44 7700 900123, and the Australian 0412 345 678 becomes +61 412 345 678.

Why do the US and Canada share the +1 code?

They are both members of the North American Numbering Plan, created in 1947 as a single integrated telephone numbering system. About 20 other countries and territories — mostly in the Caribbean — also use +1 with their own area codes.

Why do Russia and Kazakhstan share +7?

+7 was the country code of the Soviet Union. After 1991 Russia kept it and Kazakhstan continued using it too; Kazakhstan was assigned 997 as a replacement but abandoned the migration in 2023. Within +7, numbers starting with 6 or 7 belong to Kazakhstan, the rest to Russia.

What are +800 and +808 numbers?

These are non-geographic special service codes, not countries: +800 is the Universal International Freephone Service (toll-free) and +808 is International Shared Cost. Similarly +870/+881 are satellite services (e.g. Inmarsat) and +979 is international premium rate. They are listed in the special-codes section above.

What side of the road do they drive on in Japan?

Japan drives on the left. Other major left-driving countries include the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, South Africa and Singapore. Use the driving-side lookup above for any country.

Which countries drive on the left side of the road?

About 75 countries and territories drive on the left, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Malta, Cyprus, Japan, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana and Suriname. The full list is shown above.

How is this different from other country code sites?

Many ranking pages are static tables with no lookup function, and HLR lookup services like Captain Verify are built for business verification, not consumers. This tool adds reverse lookup from any pasted number, NANP area-code identification, per-country facts (capital, currency, driving side), a searchable 230+ entry table and a driving-side lookup — all running 100% in your browser. See the comparison table above for details (checked October 2026).

Is my data sent anywhere? Is the lookup private?

Everything runs 100% in your browser. The page makes zero network requests after loading — no number you paste, no search you type, ever leaves your device. There is no account, no signup and nothing is stored.

Where does the country code data come from, and how accurate is it?

Country codes follow ITU-T E.164, cross-checked against Wikipedia's list of country calling codes in October 2026. Driving-side data follows the standard left/right-hand traffic country lists (75 left-driving countries and territories). Capitals and currencies follow ISO 3166/4217 conventions. If the ITU reassigns a code, the page is updated — the data is bundled with the page so it works offline.
