## How to call South Korea

| Calling from | Dial |
| --- | --- |
| A mobile phone, anywhere | `+82 10 2000 0000` |
| United States & Canada | `011 82 10 2000 0000` |
| UK, Europe & most countries | `00 82 10 2000 0000` |
| Australia | `0011 82 10 2000 0000` |

## Calling abroad from South Korea

To call another country from a South Korea landline, start with the exit code **00(?:\[125689\]|3(?:\[46\]5|91)|7(?:00|27|3|55|6\[126\]))**, then the destination country code. On a mobile phone, holding **0** to type **+** works everywhere and replaces the exit code.

## Missed call from +82?

If you don’t know anyone in South Korea, 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.
