Ghana Calling Code FAQ

What is the calling code for Ghana?
+233. From abroad, dial your exit code (or +), then 233, then the national number. If a Ghana number is written domestically with a leading 0, drop that 0 after +233.
Is it +233 or 233?
Same code. +233 is the portable form for contacts and mobiles. 233 is what follows an exit code, for example 011 233… from the US.
Do I drop the leading 0?
Yes, if the number is written domestically with a leading 0: 0XX… → +233 XX… (drop the 0 after +233).
How do I call Ghana from the US or UK?
From the US, dial 011 233 XX… (the number without its leading 0). From the UK and most of Europe, dial 00 233 XX… in the same way. On a mobile, you can use +233 XX… instead.
