International Country Codes with Hour Offset from UTC (was GMT)

UTC = Coordinated Universal Time     GMT = Greenwich Mean Time



world travel to foreign countries

The table is arranged as follows: Country Code - Country Name - Hour Offset. The country code is the sequence of numbers you dial after 011 when making international calls. As an example, a call to Sydney, Australia might be 011 61 2 9295 8888 (Diamant Hotel Sydney), where 61 is the country code for Australia, 2 is the area code for the section of New South Wales where Sydney is located, and the last eight digits are the local phone number.

Time zone offsets are plus or minus Greenwich Mean Time (GMT = 0). Zones east of the GMT demarcation line (0 degrees latitude) have a plus sign before the zone number, those west of the line have a minus sign.
