If you are calling a mobile phone that is registered in the same country as you are dialling from, you always dial the same number to reach it.

Wherever a mobile phone is in the world, it retains its normal number - which is associated with the country it is from originally. When that phone is taken out of the country, the telephone networks will automatically reroute your call to wherever in the world the phone now is.

For example, if a United Kingdom mobile phone was being used in Canada:

  • From the United Kingdom, the normal domestic number would be dialled (07xxx xxxxxx) and the network would redirect the call to the mobile in Canada.
  • From Canada, even though that is where the phone currently is, a caller would have to dial the full UK international number, as it is still a UK-registered phone. In this case, something like: 011-44-7xxx-xxxxxx.
  • From any other country in the world, the full international UK number would be dialled - i.e. you always assume the phone is in the UK, no matter where it actually is.
