02 — THE BASICS

What is the +688 country code?

Tuvalu was assigned +688 by the ITU — placing it in zone 7 with the Pacific. Like Denmark, Tuvalu has no area codes at all: every number is dialed in full, with mobiles beginning 90.

ITU zone 7 Pacific

Tuvalu uses the +688 country code, placing it in ITU zone 7 alongside its Pacific neighbours. A three-digit code reflects its tiny size — Tuvalu is one of the world's smallest + least-populous nations, around 11,000 people spread across nine low-lying atolls. The exit code for international calls from Tuvalu is <b>00</b>.

TTC-operated

Telephony in Tuvalu is run by the Tuvalu Telecommunications Corporation (TTC) — the national operator providing landline + mobile service across the atolls. Tuvalu mobile numbers begin with <b>90</b>. Connectivity historically relied on satellite, with submarine + improved broadband links a national priority for this scattered archipelago.

No area codes — dial in full

Tuvalu uses a <b>closed numbering plan</b> with no area codes + no trunk prefix. Every number — landline or mobile — is short (5–6 digits) + dialed in full. There is no leading 0 to drop. <b>Mobiles begin with 90</b> → +688 90 XXXX; landlines are typically shorter. Internationally you always dial +688 then the complete number.

DID YOU KNOW

Tuvalu owns one of the internet\'s most valuable domains: .tv. Because ".tv" is the natural extension for television + streaming, Tuvalu licenses its ccTLD to media + tech companies worldwide — and the income is a significant share of national revenue for a country with no real natural resources. Tuvalu is also one of the lowest-lying nations on Earth, among the most threatened by rising sea levels, with the Funafuti atoll + Polynesian culture at the heart of national life.

03 — QUICK FACTS

A quick read on how it works.

A Tuvalu phone number in international format is written as +688 followed by the full number. Example: +688 90 1234 for a mobile, +688 2 0123 for a Funafuti landline. Tuvalu numbers are short — typically 5 to 6 digits — and grouped for readability.

Because Tuvalu uses a closed numbering plan with no area codes + no trunk prefix, there is no leading 0 to drop — you always dial the full number, both locally + internationally. Mobile numbers begin with 90; landlines use the shorter ranges served by TTC.

Want to call Tuvalu from abroad? Dial your exit code (00 in most countries — including Tuvalu — 011 in NANP, 0011 in Australia), then 688, then the full number. On any mobile, replace the exit code with +. Never drop a digit — Tuvalu has no area-code 0.

06 — WHY +688

Six reasons people pick a Tuvalu number.

+688 reaches a tiny, tight-knit Pacific nation + its global diaspora — home of the famous .tv domain. Whether you serve the islands, the diaspora or the digital economy, a +688 line keeps you close.

01

Reach a remote community + diaspora

A +688 number puts you on home soil for Tuvalu's ~11,000 residents across nine atolls + the sizeable Tuvaluan diaspora in Fiji, New Zealand + Australia. For families, NGOs + community groups staying connected to one of the world's most isolated nations, a local Tuvalu line matters.

02

The .tv digital-economy gateway

Tuvalu's prized .tv internet domain is licensed to television + streaming companies worldwide + is a major share of national revenue. A +688 presence aligns you with Tuvalu's outsized digital footprint — the country whose two-letter code became the internet's home for video.

03

AUD-currency convenience

Tuvalu uses the Australian dollar (AUD) — and mints its own Tuvaluan dollar coins pegged 1:1 to the AUD. Pricing, remittances + trade settle in a familiar, stable currency, making a +688 line easy to pair with Australian + Pacific business.

04

Government + business reach

A +688 number connects you to Tuvalu's government, the Tuvalu Telecommunications Corporation, NGOs, climate + development partners + the small business community centred on Funafuti — the single hub through which most national activity flows.

05

UTC+12 alignment

Tuvalu runs on TVT (UTC+12) all year with no daylight saving — the same leading edge of the clock as Fiji + New Zealand. Coordinating across the Pacific + Australasia is simple when you share the early UTC+12 business day.

06

Simple, no-area-code plan

Tuvalu's closed numbering plan is among the simplest anywhere: short numbers, no area codes, no trunk 0 to remember. <b>+688 90 1234</b> is dialed identically from Funafuti, an outer atoll or abroad — clean + uniform for every customer.
