How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Kiribati?
Kiribati uses country code +686 with a closed 8-digit national plan. There are no area codes and no domestic trunk prefix.
- From abroad → any number: exit code (e.g., 011 from US/Canada) → 686 → 8 digits. Example landline: +686 7502 1xxx (South Tarawa); example mobile: +686 730 12345.
- Within Kiribati: dial the 8 digits exact
Mobiles vs landlines:
Landlines are geographic by initial blocks (South Tarawa zones or the Gilbert/Line/Phoenix outer islands).
Mobiles use specific 6x/7x/78x families allocated to Vodafone (ATHKL) and Ocean Link. Store all contacts in +686 format—prefixes indicate the original allocation.
