## Calling abroad from Iran

To call another country from a Iran landline, start with the exit code **00**, then the destination country code. On a mobile phone, holding **0** to type **+** works everywhere and replaces the exit code.

## Missed call from +98?

If you don’t know anyone in Iran, be careful with short missed calls from international numbers. “One-ring” scams hope you call back a premium-rate line. Don’t return the call, don’t share codes sent by SMS, and block the number if it keeps calling. A genuine contact will usually leave a message or text.
