How to Call Hungary from Abroad

Follow these steps to dial a phone number in Hungary from any other country. The process is the same whether you are calling a landline or a mobile number.

  1. 1
    Dial the international access code or +

    On a mobile phone, press and hold 0 to get the + symbol. From a landline, dial your country's exit code (00 from most of Europe, 011 from the US/Canada, 0011 from Australia). With Kinvo, simply type + in the dialer.

  2. 2
    Dial Hungary's country code: 36

    After the + or exit code, enter 36. This routes your call to Hungary's telephone network.

  3. 3
    Drop the trunk prefix (06) from the local number

    When a Hungary number starts with 06 domestically, remove it when dialing internationally. The trunk prefix is only used for calls within Hungary itself.

  4. 4
    Dial the remaining local number

    Enter the area code (if applicable) and the subscriber number. The complete international number should look like this: +36 20 123 4567
