phone call Infrastructures Review

Every phone number (except cell phones) in Japan consist like this.

(area code)-1234-5678

The area code for Tokyo is "03". You don't have to dial "03" if you are inside of Tokyo but you have to dial "03" at first if you are outside of Tokyo when you make a phone call to inside of Tokyo.

The country code for Japan is 81, so dial 813 at first when you make a phone call from overseas to someone in Tokyo.

To make a phone call to outside of Japan when you are in Japan, dial "001-010" at first before country code. The overseas call service is provided by KDDI.
