What is the dialling code from Cape Town to Namibia?
Until the mid-1990's, there were domestic-format dialling codes for Namibia from South Africa. However, you now must dial the full international number, using telephone country code +264 for Namibia. You must also drop the trunk prefix 0 from the beginning of the Namibian telephone number in international format. For example, Windhoek's area code 061 becomes +264 61.
Calling from South Africa, dial the number beginning with the plus symbol if you are using a mobile phone; otherwise, replace the plus symbol with 00.
(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)
