Dialing Tips
- Remove the leading 0: When dialing internationally, drop the trunk prefix (0) that is used for domestic calls in Algeria.

Use the + notation: From a US mobile phone, use
+213instead of011 213. - Verify the number length: Numbers in Algeria have 9 digits for mobiles and 8 or 9 for landlines after +213. If your call does not connect, check that no digit is missing or doubled.
-
Save contacts in international format: Always store phone numbers with the full
+213prefix so they work from any country.
