Questions people ask

Which country has the code +420?

+420 is the dialling code for the Czech Republic.

Is +420 the same as 00420 or 011 420?

Yes. The plus sign stands for whatever exit code your phone network uses: 00 in the UK and most of the world, 011 in the US and Canada. A mobile phone converts + automatically, so saving numbers as +420 makes them work from any country.

How do I write a phone number from the Czech Republic in international format?

Start with +420, then the number. For example 601 123 456 becomes +420 601 123 456, or +420601123456 with no spaces (E.164 format, the form apps and forms usually want).

What is the exit code in the Czech Republic?

To call abroad from a landline in the Czech Republic, dial 00, then the country code and number. On a mobile, + works everywhere.

I got a missed call from +420. Should I call back?

Only if you know someone there. Unexpected one-ring calls from abroad are a known scam ("wangiri"): calling back can connect you to a premium-rate line. Search the number first, or paste it into the callmins country-code lookup to see where it's from and whether it's a mobile or landline.
