Frequently asked questions
Which country has the +973 country code?
+973 is the calling code of Bahrain; no other country uses it.
Is +973 a country code or an area code?
+973 is a country code: it is dialed first to reach Bahrain from another country. Area codes come after the country code and only pick a region inside the country. Don't confuse it with US area code 973 (Newark (NJ)): US area codes come after +1, so a number that starts with +973 is an international call, not a US number.
Is 00973 the same as +973?
Yes. +973, 00973 and 00 973 are the same code for Bahrain: 00 is the exit code dialed from a landline in most countries, and + replaces it on a mobile. From the US and Canada the exit code is 011, so it becomes 011 973.
How do I call Bahrain from abroad?
