How to read a Angola phone number
A Angola number is +244 followed by 9 digits. Knowing which of those digits mark a mobile is what tells you what the call will cost before you place it.
Angola uses no trunk prefix, so the national number is dialled exactly as written after the country code.
Mobile prefixes
Landline prefixes
Prefix ranges still identify a line as mobile or fixed even where a number has been ported between operators, because the mobile and fixed blocks are separate and numbers do not move between them. Operator identification from a prefix, by contrast, stopped being reliable once portability arrived.

All toolsFrequently asked questions
What is the country code for Angola?
The country code for Angola is +244. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).
What does a Angola phone number look like?
A Angola number is written as +244 222 123 456: the country code +244 followed by 9 digits. That total is fixed by the national numbering plan, so a number with one digit missing is a typo rather than a shorter valid number.
How can I tell if a Angola number is a mobile?
By its leading digits. In Angola, a national number of 9 digits beginning with 9 is a mobile. That still works after a number has been ported between operators, because mobile and fixed-line blocks are separate ranges and numbers do not move between them.
Do I need to drop the leading 0 when calling Angola?
Angola does not use a trunk prefix, so you dial the local number exactly as-is after the country code.
