How are country phone codes assigned?
The world was divided into nine zones, and countries were given one, two or three-digit country codes, with the initial digit representing their zone. World Zone 1 was North America, Zone 2 was Africa, Europe bagged both 3 and 4 because of the sheer number of larger countries, and so on.
Do you have to put the country code?
Why Do You Need to Use An International Calling Code and Country Code? The international calling code is needed to help the phone company understand where you would like your call to be routed. Understandably, with so many countries in the world, a way to ensure every call is routed to the right place is essential.
Can I have a phone number from a different country?
