How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Bangladesh

Bangladesh’s country calling code is +880. From abroad, dial your exit code → 880 → the area code or mobile prefix (omit the domestic 0) → the local number. Inside Bangladesh, long-distance calls use the trunk 0, and international calls use 00 or carrier-specific prefixes (001, 002). Typical formats: +880 2 … (Dhaka landline), +880 31 … (Chattogram landline), +880 1X… (mobile).

Mobiles vs landlines: Landlines use geographic area codes (1–4 digits), while mobiles use 01X operator prefixes. On international calls, drop the leading 0 (e.g., domestic 017… → +880 17…). Mobile number portability has been active since 2018, so prefixes show original allocation—not necessarily the current network.

What are the city and area codes in Bangladesh

Dialing tip: If a local landline is written as 0xx… (or 02… for Dhaka), drop the 0 when calling from abroad and start with +880.

Which mobile prefixes do mobile operators use in Bangladesh

Dialing tip: Domestic 01X… becomes +880 1X… from abroad (no leading 0). Because MNP is enabled, the prefix won’t guarantee the current carrier—always dial the full number exactly as given.
