## How to call Mozambique

| Calling from | Dial |
| --- | --- |
| A mobile phone, anywhere | `+258 82 123 4567` |
| United States & Canada | `011 258 82 123 4567` |
| UK, Europe & most countries | `00 258 82 123 4567` |
| Australia | `0011 258 82 123 4567` |
| Inside Mozambique | `82 123 4567` |

Mozambique does not use a trunk prefix, so the number you dial at home is the same one you dial after +258.

## Missed call from +258?

If you don’t know anyone in Mozambique, 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.
