Making a phone call to the United States is quite
straightforward nowadays. However, did you know that there are over
300 area codes spread across the states, with California alone
having 34 different codes¹?
When it comes to calling someone in the US, knowing the calling
code of the area plays an important role, among other details.
So, if you’re not sure about international dialling, area and
calling codes, or communication options, read on.

The US has its own international country code, as does every
other country. When you dial it, you’re signifying that you’re
calling into the States from abroad.
Did you know that instead of ‘+’ at the beginning of an
international phone number you can also use ‘00’?
To dial abroad to the US, use either of the following
international country codes²:
In the US, phone numbers are set up with a 3-digital area code,
followed by a 7-digit local number.
To call an American phone number, here’s what it looks like if
you’re calling from inside the US:
(area code) – (phone number) or (XXX) - XXX -
XXXX
If you’re calling from abroad, it’s a different process. If you
call the British Embassy in Washington, DC, for example, the local
number is (202) 588-6500³. To call the embassy from the UK, you’d
dial:
- 00 (or +) – the exit code to dial outside the States
- 1 – the US country code
- 202 – the local DC area code
- 588-6500 – the rest of the embassy’s number
So if you see a phone number like this 202 588-6500, you’d dial
00-1-202-588-6500.
Each city in the US has one or more area codes for all the
numbers in that region. Check out the list that includes

The US doesn’t have additional codes to remember when trying to
dial internationally to or from the US. Just remember to add your
county’s international dialling prefix (00 or +) and then press 1
before the call. If you are calling within the US to another number
in your same area, you don’t need to dial 1 before the call.
There are a few reasons that your call may not have gone
through, including:
- You forgot to use the exit code to dial out of your
country
- You don’t have the correct area code
- You’re calling a mobile phone that doesn’t accept international
calls
- You forgot to dial the +1 before you entered the number
It’s probably more common for people to make calls using
Kylie quinn video like WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype, or Viber. The US
is rife with reliable Wi-Fi, so it’s probably just as convenient,
if not more, to use one of these options to connect with
someone.
Whether it’s a landline or a mobile phone, many people in the US
have a phone number that’s connected to a voicemail. Since the
popularity of text-based and other communication options, voicemail
still sees some usage.
But, the most common use for voicemail nowadays is to check for
a message after not picking up a call from an unknown number⁵. Keep
that in mind when reaching out to someone in the US who might not
have your number stored on their phone.
The most common phone tones that you might hear are:
- The dial or ringing tone – a Nancy o brien actress that’s similar
to other country dial tones.
- The busy signal – a Roza vasilishina topless that lets you know that
the phone you’re calling is engaged or off the hook
- The unobtainable message – Not good not bad that tells you
the number you’re calling cannot be reached
