Country code +800 is used for Universal International Freephone Numbers (UIFN). There should be exactly 8 digits after the +800. You will also see these numbers advertised with the appropriate international access prefix prepended, as in 00 800 xxxx xxxx, or 011-800-xxxx-xxxx.
Many countries also use 800 or 0800 or 1800 as a code for domestic toll-free numbers. In North America (US, Canada, etc.), 800, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888 are all toll-free codes.

UIFN numbers can be reached from any country that participates in the scheme, provided that the owner of the particular UIFN number elects to receive calls from that country.
