Caller Instructions

  • Local callers (within Angola): Dial 02358 followed by the subscriber number. The leading 0 is the national trunk prefix and is required for all domestic calls to geographic numbers.
  • International callers: Dial your country's international access code (e.g., 00 from most countries, or 011 from the United States), then Angola's country code 244, followed by the area code 2358 and the subscriber number. Do not include the trunk prefix 0.

Administrative and Regulatory Notes

The Angolan communications regulator, INACOM, oversees the allocation of numbering resources. Geographic area codes like 2358 are tied to specific regions, and while number portability is available for mobile services, fixed-line geographic numbers are generally not portable across different geographic areas. This means that a number with the 2358 prefix is permanently associated with the N'Dalatando exchange area.

As Angola continues to modernize its telecommunications infrastructure, the use of VoIP and mobile services is expanding, but geographic codes remain essential for fixed-line connectivity, particularly for businesses and government institutions that require a stable, location-based presence.
