How do you call Japan?

Enter your country’s international exit code. To place an international phone call, you will need to dial your country’s exit code--the number that tells your phone service that you will be calling outside the country. In the United States, Canada, and many other countries, you'd dial 011. In other countries, you'd dial 00. For a full list of international exit codes, visit https://www.howtocallabroad.com/codes.html and look at the "Int'l prefix" column. If you are calling Japan from a cell phone, dial a + instead of 011. The + is shared with the 0 key on your cell phone's dial pad. You can also search the web for “[name of your country] exit code.”

Enter Japan's country code, which is 81. All calls to Japan from other countries should include this code.

Enter the area code for the region you are calling. The area codes in Japan can range from one to five digits in length, depending on the area you are trying to reach. The area codes are as follows: Akita 18 Himeji 79 Matsudo 47 Takatsuki 72 Hirakata 72 Matsuyama 89 Tokorozawa 4 Hiroshima 82 Miyazaki 985 Tokyo 3 Ichikawa 47 Nagano 26 Toyama 76 Ichinomiya 586 Nagasaki 95 Toyohashi 532 Iwaki 246 Nagoya 52 Toyonaka 6 Kagoshima 99 Naha 98 Toyota 565 Kanazawa 76 Nara 742 Utsunomiya 28 Kashiwa 4 Niigata 25 Wakayama 73 Kasugai 568 Nishinomiya 798 Yokkaichi 59 Kawagoe 49 Oita 97 Yokohama 45 Kawaguchi 48 Okayama 86 Yokosuka 46 Kawasaki 44 Okazaki 564 Amagasaki 6 Kitakyushu 93 Osaka 6 Asahikawa 166 Kobe 78 Otsu 77 Chiba 43 Kochi 88 Sagamihara 42 Fujisawa 466 Kofu 55 Saitama 48 Fukuoka 92 Koriyama 24 Sakai 72 Fukuyama 84 Kumamoto 96 Sapporo 11 Funabashi 47 Koshigaya 48 Sendai 22 Gifu 58 Kurashiki 86 Shizuoka 54 Hachioji 42 Kyoto 75 Suita 6 Hamamatsu 53 Machida 42 Takamatsu 87 Higashiosaka 6 Maebashi 27 Takasaki 27 Himeji 79 Matsudo 47 Takatsuki 72 Hirakata 72 Matsuyama 89 Tokorozawa 4 Hiroshima 82 Miyazaki 985 Tokyo 3 Ichikawa 47 Nagano 26 Toyama 76 Ichinomiya 586 Nagasaki 95 Toyohashi 532 Iwaki 246 Nagoya 52 Toyonaka 6 Kagoshima 99 Naha 98 Toyota 565 Kanazawa 76 Nara 742 Utsunomiya 28 Kashiwa 4 Niigata 25 Wakayama 73 Kasugai 568 Nishinomiya 798 Yokkaichi 59 Kawagoe 49 Oita 97 Yokohama 45 Kawaguchi 48 Okayama 86 Yokosuka 46

Enter the remaining digits of the phone number. This is the number of the person, business, or cell phone that you are trying to reach. Landline phone numbers are generally nine digits long, including the area code, while mobile phone numbers are 10 digits or more.

Place your call. Tap your phone's Call or Send button to call Japan. To demonstrate, let us say that you are trying to call your friend who lives Fukuyama, Japan and you live in San Francisco, CA, USA. You would dial: The United States exit code: 011 (if using a landline) or + (if using a cell phone). Then the country code for Japan: 81 Then the area code for Fukuyama: 84 Then the seven digit local phone number: XXX-XXXX The full number would be 011-81-84-XXX-XXXX. If someone answers by saying “もしもし” (Moshimoshi), congratulations! You have successfully called Japan.
