List of dialling codes in the United Kingdom

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Telephone dialling codes in the United Kingdom

This is a list of telephone dialling codes in the United Kingdom, which adopts an open telephone numbering plan for its public switched telephone network. The national telephone numbering plan is maintained by Ofcom, an independent regulator and competition authority for the UK communications industries. This list is based on the official standard, but includes defunct codes and historical changes, including the derivation of the two letter identities, in cases where known.[1][2][3] Dialling codes do not correspond to specific political boundaries: for example, the Coventry dialling code covers a large area of Warwickshire and the Manchester dialling code covers part or all of several neighbouring towns.

When dialling within the country, all area codes are preceded by the national trunk prefix 0, which has been included in all listings in this article. 0 was traditionally the number dialled for the operator for trunk calls before subscriber trunk dialling (STD) was introduced and so was retained as a prefix for direct-dialled calls. In the majority of areas, the area code still corresponds to the original STD letter code. When dialling from abroad, the 0 prefix is not dialled. When dialling within the same area, the area code is not needed, save for a handful of areas that do require this. When calling from a mobile telephone, the area code is always needed.

original area allocation unknown
  • 01999unused
The code 0999 was used for dialling by PO operators only to mobile relief exchanges in the Glasgow area in the 1970s.
This code is now unused, and this may simply be because previously it was 0999 and the emergency telephone number is 999. It is likely to have been avoided so as to avoid confusion.

01426, 01523 and other non-standard 01 prefixes were briefly used for pagers[8] in the late 1990s and then moved to new 076 prefixes in the Big Number Change in 2000/2001.

The area code is set aside for use as fictional numbers for drama as are parts of a number of other area codes.[15][16]

Code length[]

The length of the area code part and the local number part is found as follows:[17]

Number format NSN[notes 49] Geographic area code
2+8 only 10 020, 023, 024, 028, 029
3+7 only 10 0113, 0114, 0115, 0116, 0117, 0118, 0121, 0131, 0141, 0151, 0161, 0191

Mixed 5+5 and 5+4 10 or 9 0169 77

The number format '2+8' refers to, e.g. London, numbers using the (020) xxxx xxxx format.[18]

The number format '5+4' refers to, e.g. Brampton, numbers using the (0169 77) xxxx format.[18]

Areas with mandatory area code dialling[]

In the following areas, the area code must be included when dialling local numbers. This enables local numbers to start with 0 or 1 and was introduced to increase the number of available telephone numbers within these areas.

Area code Area code name Date effective
01202 Bournemouth (BO2) 1 November 2012[6]
01224 Aberdeen (AB4) 1 October 2014[7]
01273 Brighton (BR3) 1 October 2014[7]
01274 Bradford (BR4) 1 October 2014[7]
01642 Middlesbrough (MI2) 1 October 2014[7]
01908 Milton Keynes (WO8) 1 October 2014[7]

Overseas Territories[]

Unlike the Crown Dependencies of Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man which use the UK area codes 01534, 01481 and 01624 respectively, telephone numbers in British Overseas Territories do not come under the UK telephone numbering plan. Some are within the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). These calls are treated as international calls. Below are the access codes for the overseas territories:

Others[]

  • British Antarctic Territory +44 (shared with the UK)
  • British Indian Ocean Territory +246

    This change happened prior to PhONEday (16 April 1995); the new code is not to be confused with the current allocations of dialling codes commencing 02 to 09, as this code would have changed again (mostly by adding the '1' after initial zero) on PhONEday.
