1. Start with the proper exit code. The exit code, or international dialing prefix, is necessary to enter when you are making an international call. This code is between two and five digits, and will vary depending on where you are calling from. Exit codes are not unique to individual countries. If you are calling from the United States, the exit code is 011. If you are calling from Australia, the exit code is 0011. If you are calling from most places in western Europe or Africa, the exit code is 00. For other countries’ exit codes, search the internet or ask your phone carrier.
2. Dial Kenya’s country code (254). While the exit code signals that you are dialing a number outside of your own country, the country code specifies the destination of your call. Unlike the exit code, the country code is unique to each country.
3. Dial a 7 if you are calling a mobile phone number. In Kenya, mobile phone numbers require this additional digit before the area code and phone number. Know whether you are calling a mobile phone and will need to add this 7.
4. Enter the 2-digit area code. Kenyan phone numbers are preceded by a 2-digit area code. Here are the area codes for some of the most prominent regions of the country: Nairobi: 20 Mombasa: 41 Nakuru: 51 Kisumu: 57 Eldoret: 53
