02 — THE BASICS

What is the +880 country code?

Bangladesh was assigned +880 by the ITU in 1973 — two years after independence from Pakistan in 1971. Bangladesh sits in ITU zone 8 (Western South Asia + East Asia overlap) alongside its neighbors India +91, Bhutan +975 + Myanmar +95.

ITU zone 8 South Asia

Bangladesh has used the +880 country code since 1973, in zone 8 alongside Vietnam +84, North Korea +850, South Korea +82 (zone 8), Cambodia +855 + China +86. The 88X bloc covers parts of East Asia + Bangladesh.

BTRC-regulated

Bangladesh's telecom regulator is BTRC (Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission).

Variable-length area codes

Bangladesh uses variable-length area codes (1-4 digits) with leading 0 domestically (dropped internationally). <b>2</b> Dhaka (single-digit — the only one in Bangladesh), <b>31</b> Chittagong, <b>41</b> Khulna, <b>721</b> Rajshahi, <b>821</b> Sylhet, <b>431</b> Barisal, <b>521</b> Rangpur, <b>91</b> Mymensingh. Mobile numbers all start with <b>1</b> (013, 014, 015, 016, 017, 018, 019).

03 — QUICK FACTS

Dhaka (+880 2), Chittagong (+880 31), Gazipur + Narayanganj host 4,500+ garment factories supplying H&M, Zara, Walmart, Target, Gap + every major Western retailer. A +880 line is the natural caller-ID for textiles, sourcing, supply chain + RMG buying-house business.

03

Dhaka 2 + Chittagong 31 = power centers

A +880 2 prefix says "Dhaka — Bangladeshi Parliament Jatiya Sangsad, Bangladesh Bank (central), Dhaka Stock Exchange DSE, Motijheel CBD, Gulshan + Banani business districts, Dhaka University". +880 31 says "Chittagong — Bangladesh's 2nd-largest city + the country's primary seaport".

04

Frequently asked.

The country code for Bangladesh is +880. It is the international dialing prefix used to call any phone number in Bangladesh — landline or mobile — assigned by the ITU in 1973 (two years after independence from Pakistan in 1971). Bangladesh sits in ITU zone 8 alongside Vietnam +84, China +86 + South Korea +82.
The +880 country code was assigned to Bangladesh by the ITU in 1973 — after Bangladesh\'s independence from Pakistan in 1971. The "8" places Bangladesh in zone 8 (which spans East + Southeast Asia); "80" is unique to Bangladesh in the 88X bloc.
From the US, dial 011, then 880, then the area code WITHOUT the leading 0, then the subscriber. Example: 011 880 2 1234 5678 for Dhaka (domestic 02), or 011 880 1712 345678 for a Grameenphone mobile (domestic 01712).
From the UK, dial 00, then 880, then the area code WITHOUT the leading 0. Example: 00 880 31 1234 5678 for Chittagong. UK-Bangladesh is one of the heaviest single ITU routes (UK has ~600K Bangladeshi-British residents, concentrated in East London — Tower Hamlets is sometimes called "Banglatown").
From Saudi Arabia, dial 00, then 880, then the area code without the leading 0. KSA-Bangladesh is the heaviest single ITU route for Bangladesh — Saudi Arabia hosts ~2.5M Bangladeshi workers + remittances from KSA alone exceed $5B/year.
A Bangladeshi phone number in international format is written as +880 [area code without leading 0] [subscriber]. Example: +880 2 1234 5678 for Dhaka, +880 1712 345678 for a Grameenphone mobile.
Bangladesh uses the leading 0 as a domestic trunk prefix — it tells the network "this is a national long-distance call". When you dial internationally, the +880 country code replaces that trunk prefix, so the 0 is dropped. 02 1234 5678 (domestic) becomes +880 2 1234 5678 (international).
Bangladeshi mobile numbers all start with 1. Specifically: 017 + 013 Grameenphone (Telenor), 018 + 016 Robi (Axiata), 019 + 014 Banglalink (VEON), 015 Teletalk (state-owned). Internationally write as +880 17, +880 18, +880 19, +880 13, +880 14, +880 15, +880 16. All Bangladeshi mobiles are 10 digits domestic + portable across all 4 carriers since 2018.
+880 2 is the international prefix for Dhaka (ঢাকা) + Greater Dhaka. Bangladesh\'s capital + largest city (~23M in the greater metro — among the world\'s most densely populated). Home to the Jatiya Sangsad (Parliament — designed by Louis Kahn), Bangladesh Bank (central bank), DSE (Dhaka Stock Exchange), Bangabhaban (Presidential Palace), Motijheel CBD, Gulshan + Banani business districts + Dhaka University (founded 1921).
+880 31 is the international prefix for Chittagong (চট্টগ্রাম, officially renamed Chattogram) + the surrounding Chittagong District. Bangladesh\'s 2nd-largest city (~5M) + commercial capital. Home to the Port of Chittagong (Bangladesh\'s primary seaport, handling 90%+ of the country\'s sea trade), Chittagong Stock Exchange CSE + the gateway to the Cox\'s Bazar tourist beach (the world\'s longest natural sandy beach, 120 km).
+880 821 is the international prefix for Sylhet (সিলেট) + the Sylhet Division in northeastern Bangladesh. ~700K city population. Home to Bangladesh\'s tea garden region (the source of most Bangladeshi tea exports) + the ancestral home of much of the UK Bangladeshi diaspora (~95% of Bangladeshi-British residents trace their roots to Sylhet District).
+880 0800 is the Bangladeshi toll-free range — calls are free for the caller; the business pays. Used by Bangladeshi banks (Sonali, BRAC Bank, DBBL, EBL), Biman Bangladesh Airlines, Bangladesh Railway + every utility + retailer.
Bangladesh runs on BST (Bangladesh Standard Time, UTC+6) year-round — no daylight saving time (DST was tried in 2009, then abandoned). 30 minutes ahead of India (UTC+5:30) + 1 hour ahead of Pakistan + Western China. 11 hours ahead of US Eastern Time (in EST).
Yes. CallMama issues a real Bangladeshi +880 number from anywhere with internet access — no Bangladesh address required, no Bangladeshi NID, no in-person KYC. Pick from any of the major Bangladeshi area codes (2 Dhaka, 31 Chittagong, 41 Khulna, 821 Sylhet) or grab a 1X mobile, live in about 60 seconds.
Yes — they mean the same Bangladesh country code, written different ways. +880 is the E.123 international format; 00880 is 00 + 880 manual.
Bangladesh uses 999 as its single universal emergency number — launched in 2017, reaching Bangladesh Police, the Fire Service + Civil Defence + the Ambulance dispatch in unified 999 call centers across all 64 districts. Bangladesh chose 999 (inherited from the British colonial system, like UK + Hong Kong) over 112.
