International Dialing Nigeria

This is the international dialing code used when dialing from Nigeria. International Dialing Nigeria Code is also known as Nigeria International Direct Dialing prefix (or IDD) is used when dialing from the Nigeria to outside Nigeria (sometimes also refers to as Nigeria international access code). Do not use Nigeria IDD code when dialing within Nigeria. By simply using the Nigeria Dialing Code before the number, it unables you to place a call to outside Nigeria from within Nigeria.

To dial a international number outside Nigeria from within Nigeria, you have to dial International Dialing Nigeria Code or Nigeria International Direct Dialing prefix (IDD), Nigeria Country Code, City/ Area Code, and then the subscriber telephone number respectively as:

+234 (International Dialing Nigeria Code) + (Country Code) + City Area Code + Number you wish to call.

When dialing from a mobile phone outside Nigeria from Nigeria, only Dial '+' + (Country Code) + City Area Code + Number you wish to call. (The "+" is universal mobile international direct dialing prefix also includes Nigeria)

On the other hand, when dialing to Nigeria from outside Nigeria, a Nigeria Country Code is used. Nigeria Country Code however is not used when dialing within Nigeria.

The other type of code is Nigeria National Direct Dialing prefix (or NDD). It is used only when dialing to a destination within the Nigeria (Refer to dialing Nigeria code). Nigeria NDD code is only used as long distance dialing within the Nigeria. Do not use Nigeria National Direct Dialing prefix when dialing from outside Nigeria into Nigeria.
