How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Togo

Togo’s country calling code is +228. All standard phone numbers in Togo are 8 digits long, and Togo typically has no trunk prefix (no leading “0” to add or remove). That means dialing is straightforward: to call from abroad, dial +228 followed by the full 8-digit number; to call within Togo, dial the 8 digits as written. If you’re calling internationally from Togo, the international dialing prefix is 00 (or just use + on mobile phones).

The main difference between landlines vs mobiles is the starting prefix. Fixed/landline numbers are geographic and usually begin with 22–27 (for example, 22 for Lomé-area fixed lines), while mobile numbers typically begin with 90–93 or 96–99, and some mobile ranges also begin with 70x or 79x depending on the operator allocation. For the most reliable results (especially for travel, WhatsApp/SMS verification, and contact syncing), save Togolese numbers in E.164 format as +228 plus all 8 digits.

What are the emergency numbers in Togo

Common emergency numbers listed for Togo include 112 (general emergency), 117 (police), and 118 (fire). Some emergency directories also list 9200 as an additional emergency contact number.

What are the city and area codes in Togo

Dialing tip: Togo uses a closed 8-digit plan with no trunk “0”, so you generally don’t add/remove digits when switching between local and international dialing—just prepend +228 for international calls (e.g., 22 XX XX XX → +228 22 XX XX XX).

City	Area Code	International Dialing Format

Plateaux Region	24	+228 24 XX XX XX
Centrale Region	25	+228 25 XX XX XX

Which mobile prefixes do mobile operators use in Togo

Dialing tip: Togo has mobile number portability - so prefixes like 90/91 (Togocel) or 96/98 (Moov) are helpful for recognizing a Togolese mobile range, but they may not always match the customer’s current operator after a port. For user-facing guidance, keep it simple: dial mobiles as +228 plus the full 8 digits, and store them in that format.
