How to call Kuwait from India

  1. Dial 00, the exit code of India. On a mobile phone you can press and hold 0 to type + instead.
  2. Dial 965, the country code of Kuwait.
  3. Dial the rest of the number. Numbers in Kuwait have no trunk prefix, so dial every digit of the number as it is written.

So a mobile number shaped like +965 5XX XXXXX is dialled from an Indian landline as 00 965 5XX XXXXX, and from any mobile phone as +965 5XX XXXXX. The X marks stand for the digits of the real number.

How to call Kuwait from other countries

The steps are the same everywhere: your own country's exit code, then 965, then the number. The exit code is 011 from the United States and Canada, 00 from most of Europe, Africa and Asia, and 0011 from Australia. A mobile phone accepts + in place of any exit code, which is why numbers are best saved as +965 followed by the number.

How to call India from Kuwait

Dial 00 (the exit code of Kuwait), then 91 for India, then the number. An Indian mobile number has 10 digits. For an Indian landline, dial the STD code without its leading 0, then the number: for example 00 91 11 and the eight-digit number for Delhi. Find an Indian STD code.

Saving a number from Kuwait for WhatsApp

WhatsApp needs the full international number: + then 965 then the number. Save the contact that way and it will work on WhatsApp from any country. To open a chat without saving the contact, use the WhatsApp link maker.

Checked in November 2026 against the libphonenumber numbering data. Phone numbering can change; if a call does not connect, ask your phone company. Call charges are set by your phone company, not by the code.
