An International Exchange is a set of circuits that connect to overseas telephone systems. Your long distance provider will connect to other long distance providers overseas. This is where country codes come in. For the United States, the country code is 01. A phone number with the United States country code included would look like this:
| Country Code |
Area Code |
Exchange | Number |
|---|---|---|---|
| +1 | 202 | 555 | 1212 |
To dial through an International Exchange and reach a phone in a specific country, you need the country code and in some cases a city code. The table below lists the dialing codes I could find as of 2005.
