The number
As written
Poland dropped its trunk prefix in 2009, so there is no leading 0 to remove. A Polish number is nine digits, dialled straight after +48. Older paperwork sometimes shows a 0 in front of an area code, or a 22 for Warsaw written separately; ignore the 0 and dial the nine digits as one number.

02When
When to call
Poland is 6 hours ahead of US Eastern time nearly all year, with two or three weeks each spring and autumn at 5 or 7 while the two sides change their clocks on different dates. Polish offices open early, often at 7 or 8, so a call at 6 or 7 in the morning from New York reaches an open office.
One of the largest European diasporas in the US, and the call is usually to a parent's home phone, a bank, a notary, a hospital or a ZUS office, most of which still answer on a landline.

05Questions
Common questions
How do I call Poland from the US?
Dial 011, then 48, then the Poland number. Poland dropped its trunk prefix in 2009, so there is no leading 0 to remove. A Polish number is nine digits, dialled straight after +48. Older paperwork sometimes shows a 0 in front of an area code, or a 22 for Warsaw written separately; ignore the 0 and dial the nine digits as one number. From a browser on Airlophone there is no exit code at all: you type the number starting +48 and the price for that exact number appears before it dials.
What is the country code for Poland?
+48. From the US you dial 011 first to leave the country, so the full string begins 011 48. 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 Poland?
Basic calls to Poland start at $0.29/min for landline. From a US caller ID: landline $0.29/min, mobile $0.59/min, toll-free $0.59/min, service line from $0.42/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 Poland from the US?
Poland is 6 hours ahead of US Eastern time nearly all year, with two or three weeks each spring and autumn at 5 or 7 while the two sides change their clocks on different dates. Polish offices open early, often at 7 or 8, so a call at 6 or 7 in the morning from New York reaches an open office.
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.
