Saudi Arabia Calling Code FAQ
- What is the calling code for Saudi Arabia?
- +966. From abroad, dial your exit code (or +), then 966, then the national number. If a Saudi Arabia number is written domestically with a leading 0, drop that 0 after +966.
- Is it +966 or 966?
- Same code. +966 is the portable form for contacts and mobiles. 966 is what follows an exit code, for example 011 966… from the US.
