DIALLING PROCEDURES (INTERNATIONAL PREFIX, NATIONAL (TRUNK) PREFIX
AND NATIONAL (SIGNIFICANT) NUMBER) (IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITU-T
RECOMMENDATION E.164 (05/97))
(POSITION ON 1 JULY 2000)
Geneva, 2000
Note by the TSB
1. This List of "Dialling
Procedures" replaces the previous one published as Annex to the
ITU Operational Bulletin No. 679 of 1.XI.1998. The present list
recapitulates all the different amendments that have been published up
to Operational Bulletin No. 719 of 1.VII.2000.
2. The list of "Dialling
Procedures" contains the national (trunk) prefix, the
international prefix, the country code and the national (significant)
number in accordance with ITU-T Recommendation E.164 (05/97).
3. The national (trunk) prefix is
the digit, or combination of digits, which must be dialled before an
area (city) code when dialling a call to a subscriber from inside his
own country but outside his own numbering area. It provides access to
the automatic outgoing trunk equipment. If the entry in this column is
blank for a particular country, it means that the country has a single
nation wide numbering plan that does not use area codes, and all calls
to anywhere in the country are dialled by using the entire local
number.
Accordingly, in the international
service the trunk prefix of the country of destination must not be
dialled. ITU-T recommends that the Administrations of countries which
have not yet adopted a trunk prefix or are revising the prefix for
access to their national trunk network should adopt a prefix composed
of a single digit, preferably "0".
4. The international prefix is the
digit, or combination of digits, which must be dialled before a
country code when dialling a call to a country other than the one from
which the call is being placed. If the entry in this column is blank
for a particular country, it means that the country does not have
direct dialling facilities to other countries (in other words,
international calls must be placed through the assistance of an
operator).
ITU-T recommends that the
Administrations of countries which have not yet introduced automatic
international operation or are, for various reasons, revising their
numbering plans, should adopt an international prefix (a code for
access to the international automatic network) composed of the two
digits "00".
5. The country code (code) is
composed of one digit or is the combination of two or three digits,
characterizing the called country which is used to route calls to the
required country. It is usually dialled after the international
prefix. The List of country codes is also published in the "List
of ITU-T Recommendation E.164 assigned country codes", as an
annex to the Operational Bulletin.
6. The national (significant) number
is the number to be dialled following the national (trunk) prefix to
obtain a subscriber in the same country but in a different local
network or numbering area. The national (significant) number consists
of the area code followed by the subscriber number. If the entry in
this column is blank for a particular country, it means that the
information is missing.
7. For your information, the present
List is published as an Annex to the ITU Operational Bulletin.
Furthermore, the information it contains is also available on the ITU
home page
http://www.itu.int/itu-t/bulletin/index.html and can be consulted by
subscribers by remote access.
8. Every effort has been made to
ensure that the information contained in the Annex is accurate.
Administrations are requested to notify all modifications or missing
information concerning their national (trunk) prefix, international
prefix and the length of their national (significant) number by using
the attached form.
9. The designations employed and the
presentation of material in this List do not imply the expression of
any opinion whatsoever on the part of the ITU concerning the legal
status of any country or geographical area, or of its authorities.
