Questions people ask

Which country has the code +36?

+36 is the dialling code for Hungary.

Is +36 the same as 0036 or 011 36?

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 +36 makes them work from any country.

How do I write a phone number from Hungary in international format?

Start with +36, then the number without its leading 06. For example 06 20 123 4567 becomes +36 20 123 4567, or +36201234567 with no spaces (E.164 format, the form apps and forms usually want).

What is the exit code in Hungary?

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

I got a missed call from +36. 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.
