How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Pakistan

Pakistan’s country calling code is +92. When dialing within Pakistan, you’ll typically use the trunk prefix 0 before the city/area code for landlines (for example, Karachi is often written domestically as 021…, Lahore 042…, Islamabad/Rawalpindi 051…). For mobile numbers, Pakistan uses mobile “network codes” that start with 03 (e.g., 030x/031x/033x/034x/0355x) followed by a subscriber number, and domestically they’re usually written like 03XX XXX XXXX.

When calling Pakistan from abroad, the key rule is: dial your international exit code (or +), then 92, then the number without the leading 0. So 021 … becomes +92 21 …, 042 … becomes +92 42 …, and 03XX … becomes +92 3XX …. Pakistan’s international dialing prefix (when calling out of Pakistan) is commonly 00, but using + on a mobile works the same and avoids mistakes.

What are the city and area codes in Pakistan

Dialing tip: Inside Pakistan you’ll often see these codes written with a leading 0 (e.g., 021, 042, 051). From outside Pakistan, drop the 0 and use +92 instead (e.g., 021 → +92 21).

Jazz	030x, 032x
Zong	031x, 0370x
Telenor Pakistan	034x
Ufone	033x

MVNO example: Onic (Ufone MVNO brand)	0339x
