International telephone numbers consist of three parts: the country code, the city code, and the subscriber number. (Note, however, that some countries do not use city codes; in those cases, each subscriber number is unique within the country.) The city code identifies a part of the country.

The city code or area code allows the same subscriber number to be used in different parts of the same country. For example, in the United States, (212) 555-0123 and (213) 555-0123 are completely different telephone numbers, even though in each case the subscriber number is 555-0123.
