Wat is de landcode voor Ghana?

De landcode voor Ghana is +233 — de unieke cijferreeks die het wereldwijde telefoonsysteem gebruikt om oproepen van buiten Ghana door te sturen naar een Ghanees nummer. Zonder dit kan het netwerk nergens naartoe bellen.

Code +233 werd door de ITU aan Ghana toegewezen onder het E.164-plan – dezelfde norm die de VS +1, het VK +44 en Nigeria +234 geeft. De “+” betekent “bel uw lokale internationale exitcode”; op een mobiel: houd ingedrukt 0 om het te typen.

+23300233011 23300 233

Ze betekenen alle vier hetzelfde: ze verbinden uw oproep met Ghana.

04Getalformaat

Ghana phone number format explained

A complete Ghanaian number is 9 digits in international format (after +233). Inside Ghana it's written with a leading 0 — the trunk prefix you drop when calling from abroad.

Landline

Inside Ghana
0 + area code + subscriber → 030 234 5678
International
+233 + area code + subscriber → +233 30 234 5678

Area codes are 2 digits (Accra 30, Kumasi 32) plus a 7-digit number. Landlines are far less common than mobiles.

Mobile

Inside Ghana
0 + prefix + subscriber → 024 123 4567
International
+233 + prefix + subscriber → +233 24 123 4567

Mobiles use a 2-digit network prefix. Since number portability, the prefix no longer guarantees the carrier.

07Tijdzone

Ghana time zone — GMT (UTC +0)

Ghana sits on Greenwich Mean Time and does not observe daylight saving, so the offset is the same year-round. See the live clock at the top of this page.

Common mistakes when calling Ghana

Bijna elke mislukte internationale oproep is een formatteringsprobleem, geen netwerkprobleem.

Leaving the leading 0 on the number

Dial +233 24 123 4567, not +233 024 123 4567. The 0 is the domestic trunk prefix — drop it from abroad.

Dialing 233 without the exit code

From a US landline, "233 24 …" alone fails. You need 011 (or +) in front to flag the call international.

Assuming the network from the prefix

Portability means a 024 number isn't guaranteed to be MTN. It doesn't affect dialing — just don't assume the carrier.

Mixing up city area codes

Accra (30), Takoradi (31) and Kumasi (32) sit one digit apart.

Using the wrong exit code at home

011 (US/Canada), 00 (UK/EU/Africa), 0011 (Australia). When unsure, dial "+" from a mobile.

Tips to reduce the cost of calling Ghana

Use a VoIP service

VoIP routes the call over the internet for most of the journey, so you pay local rates on the Ghana end.

Get a Ghana virtual number

A dedicated +233 number lets you receive calls at local rates and dial out with a local caller ID.

Pair calls with mobile data

Ghana has strong mobile internet, so a data-based call is often the cheapest route home.

Compare per-minute rates

Two carriers in the same country can differ several times over per minute to Ghana.
