Where is telephone country code 00675?
Telephone country codes never begin with zero.
Country code +975, dialed as 00 975 from many places, is Bhutan.
Country code +7, dialed as 009 7 from many places, is Russia and Kazakhstan; however, there are no valid numbers beginning with +7 5.
To avoid confusion, it is best to write an international telephone number in correct international format, beginning with the plus symbol and the correct telephone country code (e.g., +975 or +56), omitting any dialing prefix.
(The plus signmeans "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.)
