Sudan Country Code: +249

+249 is the country code of Sudan; from most countries you dial it as 00249. Every phone number in Sudan, mobile or landline, starts with +249 in international format, for example +249 91 123 1234.

Dial 011, then 249, then the number without the first 0: 015 312 3456 becomes 011 249 15 312 3456. On a mobile you can also dial +249 15 312 3456.

Yes. The 0 is only dialled inside Sudan. From abroad, 015 312 3456 is +249 15 312 3456.

9 digits after +249, for example +249 91 123 1234. Inside Sudan the same number is written 091 123 1234.

Save it in your contacts with + and the country code, and leave out the first 0 of the number: +249 91 123 1234. WhatsApp needs the full international format.

The prefix 091 was issued to Zain. A number keeps its prefix when its owner moves to another network, so it may be on a different network today.

Not necessarily: +249 numbers belong to people and companies in Sudan. If you don't know the caller, don't call back: one-ring scams make you call a line that charges by the minute. Check the number first with our free phone number checker.
