Frequently asked questions
Which country has the +248 country code?
+248 is the calling code of Seychelles; no other country uses it.
Is +248 a country code or an area code?
+248 is a country code: it is dialed first to reach Seychelles 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 248 (Troy (MI)): US area codes come after +1, so a number that starts with +248 is an international call, not a US number.
Is 00248 the same as +248?
Yes. +248, 00248 and 00 248 are the same code for Seychelles: 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 011 248.
How do I call Seychelles from abroad?
Dial the exit code of the country you are in, then 248, then the local number. From most of Europe and Latin America that is 00 248 2 510 123; from the US and Canada, 011 248 2 510 123. From a mobile phone, dial +248 2 510 123 from anywhere.
Do I dial the 0 after +248?
