Phone number details
How to read a Finland phone number
A Finland number is +358 followed by 8 digits. Knowing which of those digits mark a mobile is what tells you what the call will cost before you place it.
Inside Finland, numbers are dialled with a leading 0. Drop it when calling from abroad — keeping it is the single most common reason an international call fails.
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.

Rates vary by more than a factor of ten inside a single region, because each one is set by what the operator at the far end charges to accept the call. United Kingdom is currently the cheapest place we publish a rate for near Finland.

All toolsFrequently asked questions
What is the country code for Finland?
The country code for Finland is +358. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).
What does a Finland phone number look like?
A Finland number is written as +358 9 123 4567: the country code +358 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.
How can I tell if a Finland number is a mobile?
By its leading digits. In Finland, a national number of 8 digits beginning with 4, 5 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 Finland?
Yes. Finland uses 0 as a trunk prefix for domestic calls. When dialing internationally, drop the leading 0 from the local number.
How much does it cost to call Finland?
Telvio charges $2.85/min to Finland landlines and $2.85/min to mobiles. Billing is per second with no connection fees, so you pay only for the seconds you talk.
