International Dialing Kuwait
This is the international dialing code used when dialing from Kuwait. International Dialing Kuwait Code is also known as Kuwait International Direct Dialing prefix (or IDD) is used when dialing from the Kuwait to outside Kuwait (sometimes also refers to as Kuwait international access code). Do not use Kuwait IDD code when dialing within Kuwait. By simply using the Kuwait Dialing Code before the number, it unables you to place a call to outside Kuwait from within Kuwait. Without this international dialing Kuwait Code, you will not able to place a call outside the Kuwait because the telephone exachange will not reconginize it as a valid international call.
To dial a international number outside Kuwait from within Kuwait, you have to dial International Dialing Kuwait Code or Kuwait International Direct Dialing prefix (IDD), Kuwait Country Code, City/ Area Code, and then the subscriber telephone number respectively as:
+965 (International Dialing Kuwait Code) + (Country Code) + City Area Code + Number you wish to call.
When dialing from a mobile phone outside Kuwait from Kuwait, only Dial '+' + (Country Code) + City Area Code + Number you wish to call. (The "+" is universal mobile international direct dialing prefix also includes Kuwait)
On the other hand, when dialing to Kuwait from outside Kuwait, a Kuwait Country Code is used. Kuwait Country Code however is not used when dialing within Kuwait.
The other type of code is Kuwait National Direct Dialing prefix (or NDD). It is used only when dialing to a destination within the Kuwait (Refer to dialing Kuwait code). Kuwait NDD code is only used as long distance dialing within the Kuwait. Do not use Kuwait National Direct Dialing prefix when dialing from outside Kuwait into Kuwait.
