    What is the country code for Finland?

    How to dial Finnish numbers from abroad.

    Answered at: Checked at:

    Short answer

    Finland's country code is +358. A Finnish number written as 040 123 4567 is dialled from abroad as +358 40 123 4567, without the first zero. From a Finnish phone you dial the number as it is written, with the 0.

    Practical: communication, money, services

    Why

    1. Traficom's numbering regulation sets +358 as the country code for Finland.
    2. The first 0 of a national number is a trunk prefix and is dropped after the country code.
    3. The same format works for mobile and landline numbers.

    Details

    The Åland Islands use the same +358 code. Their numbers start with 018 in Finland, or +358 18 from abroad.

    Tip

    Save Finnish numbers in your phone in the +358 format. They then work both in Finland and abroad.

    What may differ

    Short numbers such as 112 and many service numbers work differently. Some cannot be reached from abroad.

    Common misconception

    You keep the 0 when you add +358.

    What actually happens

    The first 0 is dropped after +358.
