## How to call Samoa

| Calling from | Dial |
| --- | --- |
| A mobile phone, anywhere | `+685 72 12345` |
| United States & Canada | `011 685 72 12345` |
| UK, Europe & most countries | `00 685 72 12345` |
| Australia | `0011 685 72 12345` |
| Inside Samoa | `72 12345` |

Samoa does not use a trunk prefix, so the number you dial at home is the same one you dial after +685.

## Samoa phone number format

## Calling abroad from Samoa

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

## Missed call from +685?

If you don’t know anyone in Samoa, 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.
