The Niger country code is +227 — reaching the largest country in West Africa, ~26 million Nigeriens across the Sahara + Sahel, served by Airtel Niger, Zamani Telecom (ex-Orange), Moov Africa Niger + Niger Telecoms. Nigerien bank logins + Airtel Money / Moov Money all expect a +227 mobile. Note: this is Niger (+227), not Nigeria (+234).
Niger was assigned +227 by the ITU — placing it in zone 2 with the rest of Africa. Niger has no area codes at all: every number is exactly 8 digits, dialed in full. And remember — this is Niger (+227), not Nigeria (+234).
Niger has used the +227 country code since the ITU placed it in zone 2 alongside its West African neighbours — Nigeria +234, Mali +223, Burkina Faso +226, Chad +235, Benin +229 + Algeria +213. Niger (capital Niamey, +227) is constantly confused with <b>Nigeria</b> (capital Abuja/Lagos, +234) — they are two different countries. Niger is the larger by area but far smaller by population.
Niger's telecom sector is regulated by ARCEP Niger (Autorité de Régulation des Communications Électroniques et de la Poste). Four operators: Airtel Niger (the market leader), Zamani Telecom (formerly Orange Niger), Moov Africa Niger + the state operator Niger Telecoms. Mobile money — Airtel Money + Moov Money — is widely used across the country.
Niger uses a <b>closed 8-digit plan</b> — every Nigerien number, landline or mobile, is exactly <b>8 digits</b>, dialed in full with no area codes + no trunk prefix. There is no leading 0 to drop. Landlines begin with <b>20</b>; mobiles begin with <b>7, 8 or 9</b>. International format is simply +227 + the 8 digits.
Niger is the giant of West Africa. It is the largest country in the region by area — mostly Sahara + Sahel — and a major uranium producer (the Arlit mines in the north). Agadez, a UNESCO-listed Saharan caravan city, anchors Tuareg culture, while the Niger River sweeps through the southwest past the capital Niamey. The W and Aïr-Ténéré reserves protect some of the Sahara's rarest wildlife. Nigerien banks + mobile money verify with +227 mobile OTPs.
A Nigerien phone number in international format is written as +227 NN NN NN NN — always exactly 8 digits. Example: +227 20 12 34 56 for a Niamey landline, +227 90 12 34 56 for a mobile. Niger numbers are grouped in pairs for readability. This is +227 (Niger), not +234 (Nigeria).
Because Niger 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. Landlines start with 20; mobiles start with 7, 8 or 9.
From the banks of the Niger River in Niamey to the Tuareg markets of Agadez, every Nigerien number lives behind a +227 — all 8 digits, no area code. Pick a number that fits your customers anywhere in Niger.
Every country uses a different exit code before +227. From any mobile, + replaces the exit code — so +227 90 12 34 56 works worldwide. Niger numbers are always 8 digits — never drop a digit, and never confuse +227 (Niger) with +234 (Nigeria).
