Get a Bhutan +975 number
ready in 60 seconds.
The Bhutan country code is +975 — reaching the last great Himalayan Buddhist kingdom, ~790,000 Bhutanese + mobile lines across Bhutan Telecom (B-Mobile) + TashiCell. The world's only carbon-negative country, home to the Tiger's Nest — Bhutanese bank verifications all expect a +975 mobile.
What is the +975 country code?
Bhutan was assigned +975 by the ITU — placing it in zone 9 with South + West Asia. Bhutan is mobile-first: there are no real per-city area codes — every number is 8 digits, dialed in full.
ITU zone 9 South Asia
Bhutan has used the +975 country code since the ITU placed it in zone 9 alongside India +91, Nepal +977, Bangladesh +880, Sri Lanka +94, Pakistan +92, Afghanistan +93 + the Maldives +960. The "75" suffix is unique to Bhutan in zone 9. Bhutan — Druk Yul, "Land of the Thunder Dragon" — sits in the eastern Himalayas between India + Tibet.
BICMA-regulated
Bhutan's telephone numbering is administered by BICMA (the Bhutan InfoComm and Media Authority). Two mobile carriers: Bhutan Telecom (B-Mobile — the former state operator) + TashiCell (Tashi InfoComm). Bhutan admitted television + the internet only in 1999, then leapt to mobile + 4G/LTE across its valleys.
No area codes — 8 digits
Bhutan has no real per-city area codes for users. Every Bhutanese number is <b>8 digits</b>, dialed in full with no trunk prefix. <b>Mobiles begin with 17 or 77</b> (also 16) → +975 17 XXX XXX. <b>Thimphu landlines begin with 2</b> (a short geographic prefix), e.g. +975 2 XXX XXX. There is no leading 0 to drop — like Denmark, you dial the full number internationally.
Bhutan measures Gross National Happiness, not GDP. It is the world's only carbon-negative country — its forests absorb more CO2 than the kingdom emits. Home to the cliffside Tiger's Nest monastery (Paro Taktsang), its flag bears the Druk (thunder dragon), and it follows a "high-value, low-impact" tourism policy with a daily Sustainable Development Fee. Bhutanese banks verify logins with one-time codes to a +975 mobile.
A quick read on how it works.
A Bhutanese phone number in international format is written as +975 NN XXX XXX — always 8 digits. Example: +975 17 123 456 for a B-Mobile mobile, +975 77 123 456 for a TashiCell mobile, +975 2 XXX XXX for a Thimphu landline. Mobiles begin with 17 or 77 (also 16).
Because Bhutan is mobile-first with no real area codes + no trunk prefix, there is no leading 0 to drop — you always dial the full 8-digit number, both domestically + internationally. Thimphu landlines lead with the short geographic prefix 2; all other reach is via 17/77 mobiles.
Where a +975 number reaches.
From the Tiger's Nest above Paro to the dzongs of Punakha, every Bhutanese number lives behind a +975 — all 8 digits, no area code. Pick a number that fits your customers anywhere in Bhutan.
How to call Bhutan from any country.
Every country uses a different exit code before +975. From any mobile, + replaces the exit code — so +975 17 123 456 works worldwide. Bhutanese numbers are 8 digits — never drop a digit.

Six reasons people pick a Bhutan number.
+975 reaches the last great Himalayan Buddhist kingdom — the carbon-negative home of Gross National Happiness, the Tiger's Nest + high-value tourism. Bhutanese banks verify with a +975 mobile.
Bhutanese bank OTPs
Bhutanese banks (Bank of Bhutan, Bhutan National Bank, Druk PNB, T-Bank, Bhutan Development Bank) + mobile wallets (mPay, MyPay, goBoB) send one-time codes to a +975 mobile. Without a Bhutanese number, completing bank logins + mobile-money verifications from abroad is hard.
High-value tourism gateway
Bhutan runs a "high-value, low-impact" tourism policy with a daily Sustainable Development Fee. A +975 line lets you reach Bhutanese tour operators, guides, hotels + guests directly — essential for arranging Paro, Thimphu, Punakha + Tiger's Nest trips and for staying in touch with travellers on the ground.
Thimphu commerce + government
A +975 number plugs you into Thimphu — Bhutan's capital + commercial heart, where ministries, the central bank (Royal Monetary Authority), Druk Holding & Investments + most national business sit. Thimphu landlines lead with the short geographic prefix 2; everyone else is reachable on a 17/77 mobile.
India-linked economy (INR peg)
The Bhutanese Ngultrum (BTN) is pegged 1:1 to the Indian Rupee, and Indian rupees circulate alongside it. Bhutan's trade, hydropower exports + supply chains are tightly linked to India — a +975 line is ideal for cross-border India–Bhutan commerce + travel.
BTT: aligned across the day
Bhutan runs on Bhutan Time (BTT, UTC+6) all year with no daylight saving. It sits 30 minutes ahead of India (IST, UTC+5:30) and shares the same clock as Bangladesh + the Almaty/Omsk band — predictable business hours, no clock changes.
