## How to read a Mozambique phone number

A Mozambique number is +258 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.

Mozambique uses no trunk prefix, so the national number is dialled exactly as written after the country code.

Mobile prefixes

8

Landline prefixes

2

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 Mozambique?

The country code for Mozambique is +258. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).

What does a Mozambique phone number look like?

A Mozambique number is written as +258 21 123 456: the country code +258 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 Mozambique number is a mobile?

By its leading digits. In Mozambique, a national number of 8 digits beginning with 8 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 Mozambique?

Mozambique does not use a trunk prefix, so you dial the local number exactly as-is after the country code.
