One might ask, what is a country code? Country telephone codes are a unique number assigned to a country to help identify it when making an international call. These digits must be dialed first before entering the specific phone number in order for an international call to go through. Phone country codes are important for network providers to identify calls and their intended recipients and redirect them appropriately. As such, dialing a country code allows the caller to reach others who are located in other countries.
