02 — THE BASICS

What is the +235 country code?

Chad was assigned +235 by the ITU — placing it in zone 2 with the rest of Africa. Like Denmark, Chad has no area codes at all: every number is exactly 8 digits, dialed in full.

ITU zone 2 Africa

Chad has used the +235 country code since the ITU placed it in zone 2, the African zone, alongside neighbours Cameroon +237, Niger +227, Nigeria +234, Sudan +249, Libya +218 + the Central African Republic +236. The "235" suffix is unique to Chad. Chad is landlocked, the fifth-largest country in Africa, stretching from the Sahara in the north to the Sahel + savanna in the south.

ARCEP-regulated

Chad's telephone numbering is administered by ARCEP Tchad (the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Communications + Posts). Two mobile carriers serve the country: Airtel Chad + Moov Africa Chad. Mobile coverage centres on N'Djamena + the southern cities, with both networks offering 4G in the main urban areas + widely used mobile-money services.

No area codes — 8 digits

Chad uses a <b>closed 8-digit numbering plan</b> with no area codes at all. Every Chadian number — landline or mobile — is exactly <b>8 digits</b>, dialed in full with no trunk prefix. There is no leading 0 to drop. <b>Mobiles begin with 6, 7 or 9</b> (e.g. +235 63 12 34 56), so the same 8 digits are dialed from N'Djamena, Moundou or abroad.

DID YOU KNOW

Chad gives Lake Chad its name. The lake — shared with Niger, Nigeria + Cameroon — sits at the country's western edge. To the north-east, the Ennedi Plateau (a UNESCO World Heritage site) is famous for its sandstone arches + desert oases, while Zakouma National Park protects one of central Africa's last great elephant herds. Oil is Chad's main export, and Chadian banks + mobile money (Airtel Money, Moov Money) verify logins with one-time codes sent to a +235 mobile.

03 — QUICK FACTS

A quick read on how it works.

A Chadian phone number in international format is written as +235 NN NN NN NN — always exactly 8 digits. Example: +235 63 12 34 56 for an Airtel mobile, +235 90 12 34 56 for a Moov mobile. Chadian numbers are grouped in pairs for readability.

Because Chad uses a closed 8-digit plan with no area codes + no trunk prefix, there is no leading 0 to drop — you always dial all 8 digits, both domestically + internationally. Mobile numbers begin with 6, 7 or 9; both Airtel Chad + Moov Africa Chad draw from these ranges.

Want to call Chad from abroad? Dial your exit code (00 in most countries — including Chad — 011 in NANP, 0011 in Australia), then 235, then all 8 digits. On any mobile, replace the exit code with +. Never drop a digit — Chad has no area-code 0.

06 — WHY +235

Six reasons people pick a Chad number.

+235 reaches a fast-growing Sahelian market + the commercial heart of N'Djamena. Airtel Money, Moov Money + every Chadian bank verify logins with a +235 mobile.

01

Bank + mobile-money OTPs

Chadian banks + the country's two mobile-money services — Airtel Money + Moov Money — send one-time codes to a +235 mobile. A Chadian number makes opening accounts, confirming transfers + completing bank + mobile-money verifications far easier, whether you are in N'Djamena or abroad.

02

Oil-sector + cross-border business

Oil is Chad's main export, and a +235 line connects you to the energy + trading firms, banks, NGOs + logistics operators working across the Doba basin, N'Djamena + the wider Central African market. A local number signals a real, reachable presence.

03

Diaspora reach into France + beyond

Many Chadians live + study abroad, with France a major hub given the shared language + history. A +235 number keeps you reachable to family, businesses + community contacts back home at local rates, and lets relatives in France or elsewhere reach you on a familiar Chadian line.

04

N'Djamena commerce gateway

N'Djamena, the capital on the Chari River across from Cameroon, is the country's commercial + administrative centre. A +235 number plugs straight into its markets, ministries, banks + import-export trade — the natural base for doing business in Chad.

05

WAT: one clock, aligned with West + Central Africa

Chad runs on West Africa Time (WAT, UTC+1) all year with no daylight saving. That keeps it on the same clock as Cameroon, Niger, Nigeria + much of West + Central Africa, and only one hour ahead of GMT — simple to schedule against Europe + Africa alike.

06

Simple 8-digit plan

Chad's closed 8-digit numbering plan is one of the cleanest around: every number is exactly 8 digits, dialed the same way everywhere, with no area code + no trunk 0 to remember. <b>+235 63 12 34 56</b> is dialed identically from N'Djamena, Moundou or abroad.

From the US, dial 011 (NANP exit code), then 235, then all 8 digits of the Chadian number. Example: 011 235 63 12 34 56 for an Airtel mobile, or 011 235 90 12 34 56 for a Moov mobile. On any mobile, replace 011 with +. Never drop a digit — Chad has no area-code 0.
From the UK, dial 00 (UK exit code), then 235, then all 8 digits. Example: 00 235 63 12 34 56. Or use +235 63 12 34 56 from any UK mobile.
From France, dial 00 (France exit code), then 235, then all 8 digits. Example: 00 235 90 12 34 56 for a Moov mobile. France is a major hub for the Chadian diaspora given the shared language + history, so France-Chad is a busy calling route.
From Cameroon, dial 00 (Cameroon exit code), then 235, then all 8 digits. Example: 00 235 63 12 34 56. Cameroon borders Chad along the Chari + Logone rivers, with N\'Djamena sitting directly across from the Cameroonian town of Kousséri.

No. Chad uses a closed 8-digit numbering plan with no area codes at all. Every Chadian number — landline + mobile — is exactly 8 digits, dialed in full with no trunk prefix + no area code. There is no leading 0 to add or drop. The same 8 digits are dialed from N\'Djamena, Moundou or abroad.
ARCEP Tchad assigns mobile numbers in the 6, 7 + 9 ranges, so every Chadian mobile begins with one of those digits (e.g. +235 63 12 34 56 or +235 90 12 34 56). Both carriers — Airtel Chad + Moov Africa Chad — draw their numbers from these ranges. All Chadian numbers are exactly 8 digits, dialed in full.
Chad has no area codes, so N\'Djamena — the capital — has no dedicated dialing prefix. Every number is simply 8 digits, e.g. +235 63 12 34 56, dialed in full whether the line is in N\'Djamena or anywhere else in Chad. There is no regional code to add.
+235 800 identifies Chadian toll-free numbers — calls are free for the caller; the business or organisation pays. They are used by some banks, telecom operators + larger institutions for customer-service lines. As with every Chadian number, a toll-free number is dialed as a full 8-digit string.
Chad runs on West Africa Time (WAT, UTC+1) all year round, with no daylight saving time. The clocks never change. That keeps Chad on the same time as Cameroon, Niger + Nigeria, and just one hour ahead of GMT/UTC.

Yes — they mean the same Chad country code, written different ways. +235 is the ITU-T E.123 international format. 00235 is the manual form: 00 + 235. Dial the + form from a mobile, or the 00 form where + is not available.
In Chad, 17 is the police emergency number + 18 reaches the fire service (sapeurs-pompiers). These are short national emergency numbers, dialed directly inside Chad. They are not part of the 8-digit subscriber numbering plan.
A +235 number lets the Chadian diaspora — in France + beyond — stay reachable on a familiar local line + call home at local rates. Family, banks, mobile-money services + businesses in Chad all recognise a +235 number, so calls + verification codes flow as if you were in N\'Djamena.
