# How to Call Nepal (+977)

Country code, exit codes, phone number format, and common mistakes when calling Nepal from abroad.

## Dialing format

How to dial from United States

### Calling Nepal

The subscriber number

From the United States, dial **011** to place an international call, then **977** for Nepal, 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.

| Calling from | Exit code | You dial |
| --- | --- | --- |
| United States / Canada | 011 | 011 977 ... |
| United Kingdom | 00 | 00 977 ... |
| Australia | 0011 | 0011 977 ... |
| Most of Europe | 00 | 00 977 ... |
| Japan | 010 | 010 977 ... |
| From a mobile / VoIP app | + | +977 ... |

## Nepal phone number format

Country code +977

Trunk prefix 0 (drop when dialing from abroad)

Example +977 1 4123456

## Common mistakes

- ✕ Keeping the leading 0 when dialing from abroad. Drop it — it is only for domestic calls within Nepal.
- ✕ Using the wrong exit code. Each country has its own (US: 011, UK: 00). On mobile, just use +.
- ✕ Forgetting the country code +977. Without it, the call will fail or route locally.

## Country codes that get mistaken for +977

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 +977 when calling Nepal.

- +967YemenOne digit away[Guide](https://telvio.app/how-to-call/yemen/)
- +970PalestineOne digit away[Guide](https://telvio.app/how-to-call/palestine/)
- +971United Arab EmiratesOne digit away[Guide](https://telvio.app/how-to-call/united-arab-emirates/)
- +972IsraelOne digit away[Guide](https://telvio.app/how-to-call/israel/)

The reliable habit is to store Nepal numbers with the plus sign and the full code — +977 — 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 Nepal

To dial an international number from inside Nepal, start with the exit code 00, 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 00 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 Nepal.

## Frequently asked questions

What is the country code for Nepal?

The country code for Nepal is +977. Dial this after your exit code (or use + on a mobile) before the local number.

How do I call Nepal from the United States?

From a landline: dial 011 + 977 + the local number. From a mobile or a VoIP app like Telvio: dial +977 + the local number — the + works from any country without knowing its exit code.

Do I need to drop the leading 0 when calling Nepal?

Yes. Nepal uses 0 as a trunk prefix for domestic calls. When dialing internationally, drop the leading 0 from the local number.

What is the exit code to call Nepal from my country?

The exit code depends on where you are calling FROM, not the destination. The US uses 011, the UK and most of Europe use 00, Australia uses 0011. On any mobile phone or VoIP app, you can use + instead.

Can I call Nepal mobile phones internationally?

Yes. Dial the country code +977 followed by the mobile number (without the leading 0). VoIP apps like Telvio make this easy — just enter the full number with country code.
