Dial CodesHow to call Zimbabwe from India
- Dial 00, the exit code of India. On a mobile phone you can press and hold 0 to type + instead.
- Dial 263, the country code of Zimbabwe.
- Dial the rest of the number. If the number is written with 0 in front for calls inside Zimbabwe, leave that 0 out.
So a mobile number shaped like +263 7X XXX XXXX is dialled from an Indian landline as 00 263 7X XXX XXXX, and from any mobile phone as +263 7X XXX XXXX. The X marks stand for the digits of the real number.
How to call Zimbabwe from other countries
The steps are the same everywhere: your own country's exit code, then 263, 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 +263 followed by the number.
How to call India from Zimbabwe
Dial 00 (the exit code of Zimbabwe), 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 Zimbabwe for WhatsApp
WhatsApp needs the full international number: + then 263 then the number, without the trunk prefix 0. 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.
