Phone number details
How to read a Morocco phone number
A Morocco number is +212 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.
Inside Morocco, 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.

All toolsFrequently asked questions
What is the country code for Morocco?
The country code for Morocco is +212. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).
What does a Morocco phone number look like?
A Morocco number is written as +212 5 22-123456: the country code +212 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 Morocco number is a mobile?
By its leading digits. In Morocco, a national number of 9 digits beginning with 6, 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.
Do I need to drop the leading 0 when calling Morocco?
Yes. Morocco 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 Morocco?
Telvio charges $0.48/min to Morocco landlines and $1.88/min to mobiles. Billing is per second with no connection fees, so you pay only for the seconds you talk.
