Frequently asked questions
Which country has the +972 country code?
+972 is the calling code of Israel; no other country uses it.
Is +972 a country code or an area code?
+972 is a country code: it is dialed first to reach Israel 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 972 (Dallas (TX)): US area codes come after +1, so a number that starts with +972 is an international call, not a US number.
Is 00972 the same as +972?
Yes. +972, 00972 and 00 972 are the same code for Israel: 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 011 972.
