What is country code 01149?

Question: What is country code 01149? I am attempting to call the phone number 01149 89 360xxx.

Answer: 01149 is the country code for Germany when dialed from the United States or Canada.

‘011’ is the exit code to call from the U.S. or Canada to the international switchboard. If calling from a different country, this code is different.

’49’ is the country code for Germany.

To call this number from within Germany, dial 089 360xxx. Do not dial the leading ‘011’ or the country code ’49’. Include a leading ‘0’ (trunk prefix) with the number. If calling within Munich from another landline phone, dial 360xxx (do not include the trunk prefix ‘0’ or the area code ’89’).

To call this number from the United States or Canada dial ‘011-49-89-360xxx’. Do not include any leading ‘0’ (sometimes listed as ‘089’ in the phone number).

To call this number from the United Kingdom, France, the NetherlandsSpain, Italy, India, or many of the countries with exit code ’00’, dial ’00-49-89-360xxx’. These countries use exit code ’00’ instead of ‘011’. Do not include any leading ‘0’ (sometimes listed as ’01’ in the phone number).

To call this number from Australia dial ‘0011-49-89-360xxx’. Do not include any leading ‘0’ (sometimes listed as ’01’ in the phone number).

US cell to US cell in Germany

Question: Hello, we will be traveling in Germany this summer. Can we call from a US-based cell phone to a US-based cell phone while in Germany?

Answer: Yes, you can call between two US cell phones while in Germany.

If one of your cell phone numbers is (212) 555-1234, dial 00-1-212-555-1234 to call the cell phone. You can also dial the call as +1-212-555-1234 (some phones can dial a plus symbol).

Be aware that this call will be expensive. You will be incurring the cost of an international call from Germany to the US when you dial out from the first phone and an additional international roaming call from the US to Germany as the second phone receives the call. Be sure to check your international and roaming rates before making these calls.

  1. Your country’s exit code – 00 – this is signified by the ‘plus’ symbol.
  2. The destination country code – 33 – this is the country code as it is the number cluster immediately after the ‘+.’
  3. The local phone number – 1 55 37 XX XX – this is the remainder of the phone number.

What country is country code ‘0049’?

Question: I am calling country code ‘0049’ but having trouble. Where is country code ‘0049’? I am attempting to call the phone number “0049 69 788XXXX.”

Answer: The number you are attempting to call looks like it is in Germany.

“00” is an international exit code (the number used to access the international switchboard) for most European and many Asian countries. If ’00’ is dialed from a country that does not use that as its exit code (the U.S. and Canada use ‘011’, Australia uses ‘0011’, Japan uses ‘010’, Russia and some countries of the former U.S.S.R use ‘8’ – wait for the dial tone – ’10’), the call will not work.

“49” is the country code for Germany. It is the number that is dialed to reach France from the international switchboard.

The remainder of the number appears to be the format for a German phone number. The ’69’ signifies the area code for Frankfurt within the German numbering system.

If you are calling this number from a landline phone within Frankfurt, Germany, do not include the leading ’00,’ the country code ’49,’ or the Frankfurt area code ’69.’ The number would be dialed:

788 XXXX

If you are calling this number from within Germany on a mobile or outside of Frankfurt, do not include the leading ’00’ or the country code ’49.’ Add a leading trunk prefix ‘0’ to the number. The number would be dialed:

0 69 788 XXXX

If this number was dialed from the UK, France, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Poland, the Czech Republic, AustriaItaly, or Spain, it would be dialed:

00 49 69 788 XXXX

If this number was dialed from the United States or Canada, it would be dialed:

011 49 69 788 XXXX

If this number was dialed from Japan, it would be dialed:

010 49 69 788 XXXX

If this number was dialed from Australia, it would be dialed:

0011 49 69 788 XXXX
