To dial any New York City telephone number, from anywhere in the US or Canada, including within New York City, you can dial 1 plus the area code and the number. If you dial 0 plus, you will have the option of operator assistance, collect calling, etc.

If you are calling from outside North America (USA, Canada, and certain Caribbean-ish islands), you should dial country code +1 from a mobile phone, or dial the appropriate international prefix for the place you are calling from, followed by country code 1 and then the area code and number. The most commonly used prefix for international calls is 00, but many countries use other prefixes.
