Included here is an updated list of International Country Codes, using information supplied by British Telecom International. The codes seem to be allocated according to which part of the world the country is located in with the first digit of the country code indicating the region, though as always there are exceptions (codes 297-299). Harking back to a few digests ago, I think it would be wise for CCITT (I think that's the correct regulatory body) to split country code 1 so that Canada and the Carribean Islands have their own codes (e.g. USA = 11, Canada = 12, Islands = 1[3-9]X). I know there would be some hassle in going through with such a major change, but it will have to happen some day. It is the only major country code that is split between independent nations. +--------------------------------------------+--------------------------------+ | K.Hopkins%cs.nott.ac.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk | Kevin Hopkins, | | or ..!mcvax!ukc!nott-cs!K.Hopkins | Department of Computer Science,| | or in the UK: K.Hopkins@uk.ac.nott.cs | University of Nottingham, | | CHAT-LINE: +44 602 484848 x 3815 | Nottingham, ENGLAND, NG7 2RD | +--------------------------------------------+--------------------------------+ -----------------------------------CUT--HERE----------------------------------- 1 North America and the Carribean Also code 297 2 Africa Except for codes 297-299 3 Europe Also codes 298 and 299 4 Europe 5 Central and South America 6 Indochina and Australasia 7 USSR 8 East Asia 9 West and Central Asia -----------------------------------CUT--HERE----------------------------------- (Split on columns 1, 37 and 49 if necessary) Algeria 213 Andorra 33 628 Sub-country code of France Angola 244 Anguilla 1 809 407 Antigua & Barbuda 1 809 Antilles (Netherlands) 599 Argentina 54 Aruba 297 Ascension Islands 247 Australia 61 Austria 43 Azores 351 Bahamas 1 809 Bahrain 973 Bangladesh 880 Barbados 1 809 Belgium 32 Belize 501 Benin 229 Bequia 1 809 45 Bermuda 1 809 23 Numbers starting 4,6 or 8 Bermuda 1 809 29 Numbers starting 2,3,5 or 7 Bolivia 591 Botswana 267 Brazil 55 Brunei Darussalam 673 Bulgaria 359 Burkina Faso 226 Burma 95 Burundi 257 Cameroon 237 Canada 1 Canary Islands 34 Cayman Islands 1 809 94 Central African Republic 236 Chile 56 China 86 Christmas Island 672 Cocos (Keeling) Islands 672 Colombia 57 Congo 242 Cook Islands 682 Costa Rica 506 Cote d'Ivoire, La 225 Cuba 53 Cyprus 357 Czechoslovakia 42 Denmark 45 Djibouti 253 Dominica 1 809 44 5 figure numbers Dominica 1 809 449 4 figure numbers Dominican Republic 1 809 Ecuador 593 Egypt 20 El Salvador 503 Ethiopia 251 Falkland Islands 500 Faroe Islands 298 Fiji 679 Finland 358 France 33 French Guiana 594 French Polynesia 689 Gabon 241 Gambia 220 German Democratic Republic (East) 37 Germany, Federal Republic of (West) 49 Ghana 233 Gilbraltar 350 Greece 30 Greenland 299 Grenada (including Carriacou) 1 809 440 Numbers starting 1,2,3,7 or 9 Grenada (including Carriacou) 1 809 443 Numbers starting 5 Grenada (including Carriacou) 1 809 444 Numbers starting 4,6 or 8 Guadeloupe 590 Guam 671 Guatemala 502 Guyana 592 Haiti 509 Honduras 504 Hong Kong 852 Hungary 36 Iceland 354 India 91 Indonesia 62 Iran 98 Iraq 964 Irish Republic 353 Israel 972 Italy 39 Ivory Coast 225 See Cote d'Ivoire, La Jamaica 1 809 Japan 81 Jordan 962 Kenya 254 Kiribati 686 Korean, Republic of (South) 82 Kuwait 965 Lebanon 961 Lesotho 266 Liberia 231 Libya 218 Liechtenstein 41 75 Sub-country code of Switzerland Luxembourg 352 Macao 853 Madagascar 261 Madeira 351 91 Sub-country code of Portugal Malawi 265 Malaysia 60 Maldives 960 Mali 223 Malta 356 Marshall Islands 692 Martinique 596 Mauritania 222 Mauritius 230 Mexico 52 Micronesia 691 Monaco 33 93 Sub-country code of France Montseratt 1 809 491 Morocco 212 Mozambique 258 Namibia 264 Nauru 674 Nepal 977 Netherlands 31 Nevis 1 809 469 New Caledonia 687 New Zealand 64 Nicaragua 505 Niger 227 Nigeria 234 Norfolk Island 672 North Mariana Islands 670 Norway 47 Oman 968 Pakistan 92 Panama 507 Papua New Guinea 675 Paraguay 595 Peru 51 Phillippines 63 Poland 48 Portugal 351 Puerto Rico 1 809 Qatar 974 Reunion 262 Romania 40 Rwanda 250 Saipan 670 See North Mariana Islands Samoa (US) 684 Samoa (Western) 685 San Marino 39 549 Sub-country code of Italy Saudi Arabia 966 Senegal 221 Seychelles 248 Sierra Leone 232 Singapore 65 Solomon Islands 677 Somalia 252 South Africa 27 Spain (including Balearic Islands) 34 Sri Lanka 94 St. Christopher 1 809 465 Also known as St. Kitts St. Kitts 1 809 465 See St. Christopher St. Lucia 1 809 45 St. Pierre & Miquelon 508 St. Vincent and the Grenadines 1 809 45 Sudan 249 Surinam 597 Swaziland 268 Sweden 46 Switzerland 41 Syria 963 Taiwan 886 Tanzania 255 Thailand 66 Togo 228 Tonga 676 Trinidad and Tobago 1 809 Tunisia 216 Turkey 90 Turks and Caicos Islands 1 809 946 USSR 7 Uganda 256 United Arab Emirates 971 United Kingdom 44 United States 1 Uruguay 598 Vanuatu 678 Vatican City 39 66982 Sub-country code of Italy Venezuela 58 Virgin Islands (UK) 1 809 49 Virgin Islands (USA) 1 809 Yemen Arab Republic 967 Yemen People's Democratic Republic 969 Yugoslavia 38 Zaire 243 Zambia 260 Zimbabwe 263 -----------------------------------CUT--HERE-----------------------------------
