Where is telephone country code 00213?

Answer 1

Country code +20 is Egypt, but there are no valid numbers beginning with +20 7.

Telephone numbers in parts of London, UK, are often written incorrectly with the domestic dialing prefix 0207. However, the correct prefix is just 020; the 7 is the first digit of the eight-digit local number in London, not part of the area code. In international format, 020 becomes +44 20.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

Answer 2

Telephone country codes never begin with zero.

Country code +213, dialed as 00 213 from many places, is Algeria.

Country code +1, dialed as 002 1 from many places, is North America (USA, Canada, etc.). You need the three-digit area code (i.e., two more digits) to narrow down the location.

To avoid confusion, it is best to write an international telephone number in correct international format, beginning with the plus symbol and the correct telephone country code (e.g., +213 or +1), omitting any dialing prefix.
