What is the country code for Mozambique?
Mozambique's country code is +258, and it dials more simply than most of its neighbours: the country runs no national trunk prefix, so there's no leading 0 to remember. You dial the full national number — area code or mobile prefix and all — exactly the same way at home and from abroad once you've added +258. Whatever's printed is what you dial.
程式碼 +258 被分配給 Mozambique 由 ITU 根據 E.164 計劃制定。這 “+” 意思是「撥打您當地的國際退出代碼」；在行動裝置上，按住 0 來輸入它。
這四個意思都是一樣的——它們將您的電話連接到 Mozambique.
How to call Mozambique from anywhere
Just three parts, and nothing to trim: your exit code, Mozambique's country code 258, then the complete national number as written.

Mozambique phone number format explained
The lengths are easy to keep straight: a fixed line is 8 digits in total (2-digit area code + 6 digits), and a mobile is 9 digits in total (2-digit prefix + 7 digits). Because there's no trunk 0 anywhere in the plan, those totals are exactly what you dial.

Mozambique mobile network prefixes
The prefix after +258 tells you which network issued the SIM — though number portability means it no longer guarantees the operator.
Tmcel (mCel)
Vodacom Mozambique
Movitel
Mozambique time zone
Mozambique runs on Central Africa Time (CAT), UTC+2, all year with no daylight saving — a single clock down the whole coast from Pemba to Maputo. Handily, it sits on the same time as neighbouring South Africa, so cross-border calls need no mental arithmetic.
Late morning through mid-afternoon in Maputo (about 10:00–15:00 CAT) reaches Europe's morning and the US East Coast's early hours, while lining up exactly with the South African business day.

幾乎每次失敗的國際電話都是格式問題，而不是網路問題。
Inserting a trunk 0 out of habit: Mozambique has no national trunk prefix, so adding a leading 0
the way you would for South Africa or Portugal — breaks the number.
Stripping a digit to "remove the 0": there's nothing to remove, so cutting a digit leaves the number short and unconnectable

Reading the network off the prefix: portability means an 84 line, for instance, may no longer be on its original carrier

Stacking 00 or 011 after a + sign
the + already replaces your exit code.
Mixing up the 2-digit area code with the 2-digit mobile prefix
both are two digits, but landlines run 8 digits total and mobiles run 9.

Mozambique +258 — FAQ
Does Mozambique use a trunk 0 like its neighbours?expand_more
No — Mozambique has no national trunk prefix. You dial the full national number both locally and from abroad, with no 0 to add or remove.
So how do I call a Mozambican mobile from overseas?expand_more
Add +258, then the full 9-digit number exactly as written — for example +258 84 123 4567.
Why does my call fail when I add a 0 in front?expand_more
Because there's no trunk 0 to accommodate; inserting one (or trimming a digit as if removing one) corrupts the number.
How long are Mozambican numbers?expand_more
Landlines are 8 digits total (2-digit area code + 6), mobiles are 9 digits total (2-digit prefix + 7).
What is Maputo's area code?expand_more
21 — so a Maputo landline reads +258 21 followed by 6 digits.
Can I tell the operator from a Mozambican mobile prefix?expand_more
Originally yes (Tmcel 82/83, Vodacom 84/85, Movitel 86/87), but portability means a number may have moved networks.
Does Mozambique observe daylight saving?expand_more
No. It stays on CAT (UTC+2) year-round, the same time as South Africa.
Can a business outside Mozambique get a local +258 number?expand_more
Yes — MCM provisions Mozambican DIDs (Maputo or national) and routes the calls to your team anywhere.
