Phone number details
How to read a Palestine phone number
A Palestine number is +970 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 Palestine, 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 Palestine?
The country code for Palestine is +970. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).
What does a Palestine phone number look like?
A Palestine number is written as +970 2 234 5678: the country code +970 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 Palestine number is a mobile?
By its leading digits. In Palestine, a national number of 8 digits beginning with 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 Palestine?
Yes. Palestine uses 0 as a trunk prefix for domestic calls. When dialing internationally, drop the leading 0 from the local number.
