From the United States, dial 011 to place an international call, then 976 for Mongolia, then the area code (drop any leading 0), followed by the local number. With Telvio you dial the same format — no prefix change needed.
Exit codes by source country
The exit code depends on where YOU are calling from. On mobile phones and VoIP apps, use + instead.

Mongolia phone number format
Common mistakes
- ✕ Keeping the leading 0 when dialing from abroad. Drop it — it is only for domestic calls within Mongolia.
- ✕ Using the wrong exit code. Each country has its own (US: 011, UK: 00). On mobile, just use +.
- ✕ Forgetting the country code +976. Without it, the call will fail or route locally.
Country codes that get mistaken for +976
A wrong country code does not fail cleanly. It connects — to a stranger in another country — and it bills. These are the codes a caller most plausibly dials instead of +976 when calling Mongolia.

The reliable habit is to store Mongolia numbers with the plus sign and the full code — +976 — rather than typing them each time. A number saved in full international form dials correctly from any country you happen to be in, and removes the whole class of mistake above.
Calling out of Mongolia
To dial an international number from inside Mongolia, start with the exit code 001, then the destination country code, then the number without its own trunk prefix. The exit code belongs to the country you are calling FROM, not the one you are calling.
On a mobile, press and hold the 0 key until a plus sign appears and dial the number in full international form instead. The plus tells the network to work out the exit code itself, so the same saved number dials correctly whether you are at home or abroad — no need to remember 001 at all.

Other Asian destinations, cheapest first
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. Taiwan is currently the cheapest place we publish a rate for near Mongolia.

How do I call Mongolia from the United States?
From a landline: dial 011 + 976 + the local number. From a mobile or a VoIP app like Telvio: dial +976 + the local number — the + works from any country without knowing its exit code.
