## How to read a Lebanon phone number

A Lebanon number is +961 followed by 7 digits. Knowing which of those digits mark a mobile is what tells you what the call will cost before you place it.

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.

## Frequently asked questions

What is the country code for Lebanon?

The country code for Lebanon is +961. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).

What does a Lebanon phone number look like?

A Lebanon number is written as +961 1 234 567: the country code +961 followed by 7 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.

By its leading digits. In Lebanon, a national number of 7 digits beginning with 3, 7 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.
