The number
As written
Greece has no trunk prefix. A Greek number is ten digits and is dialled exactly as written after +30: an Athens landline begins 21, a mobile begins 69. There is no 0 to drop, and adding one is the usual mistake.

02When
When to call
Greece is 7 hours ahead of US Eastern time for most of the year, briefly 6 or 8 in the weeks when Greece and the US change clocks on different dates. A Greek office day ends around 3 or 4 in the afternoon, which is 8 or 9 in the morning in New York, so this is an early call.
Family on the islands, a bank, a lawyer, a tax office, or a shipping company, and in summer the number of a hotel or a ferry line that answers a landline and nothing else.

05Questions
Common questions
How do I call Greece from the US?
Dial 011, then 30, then the Greece number. Greece has no trunk prefix. A Greek number is ten digits and is dialled exactly as written after +30: an Athens landline begins 21, a mobile begins 69. There is no 0 to drop, and adding one is the usual mistake. From a browser on Airlophone there is no exit code at all: you type the number starting +30 and the price for that exact number appears before it dials.
What is the country code for Greece?
+30. From the US you dial 011 first to leave the country, so the full string begins 011 30. From the UK and most of Europe the exit code is 00 instead, and from Australia it is 0011.
How much does it cost to call Greece?
Basic calls to Greece start at $0.15/min for landline. From a US caller ID: landline $0.15/min, mobile $0.35/min, service line from $0.59/min. Professional adds $0.02/min to paid calls, whether recording is on or off. Connected calls are billed per minute, with part of a minute counting as a full minute. Enter the number to see its exact price before calling.
Can I use my own number as caller ID?
Yes, if the number is eligible. Verify that you control it once, then select it as your Verified Caller ID when you call. Some networks cannot present a number you own on every route, and the dialer confirms that before the call starts.
What is the best time to call Greece from the US?
Greece is 7 hours ahead of US Eastern time for most of the year, briefly 6 or 8 in the weeks when Greece and the US change clocks on different dates. A Greek office day ends around 3 or 4 in the afternoon, which is 8 or 9 in the morning in New York, so this is an early call.
Do I need an app or a SIM card?
No app or SIM is required. Use a browser with internet and a microphone. The recipient answers their ordinary landline or mobile and needs no internet connection.
