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.

The country code for Bosnia and Herzegovina is +387. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).
What does a Bosnia and Herzegovina phone number look like?
A Bosnia and Herzegovina number is written as +387 33 123 456: the country code +387 followed by 8 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.
