Normally, before you make an international call to anywhere, you need to know the appropriate "International Direct Dial" code (IDD) for the country that you are calling that you wish to call.

The area codes in many countries begin with a "0". In most cases, this "0" should be omitted when calling these countries internationally.

Standard international dialing procedure:

+ <Country Code><Area Code><Phone Number>
