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.
