Cellular Phones and their Dialling Codes |

For calls from cellphone to cellphone, or a land line to a cellphone that are located in the same city, town etc., the cellphone number is preceded by dialling 044+55+CELLPHONE NUMBER.
For calls from a land line to a cell in another town or city, instead of dialling the (01) long distance code, all you do is dial 045 and then the area code, followed by the number in question. |
