Telephone

Telephone service in Armenia is currently operated by Armentel, the communications monopoly. As the world of telecommunications worldwide has developed in leaps and bounds during the previous decade, Armentel has aimed to provide a broad range of high quality services. One example of these efforts is the digitalization of the local network in Yerevan and some of the regions.
For calls to standard phones in Armenia from abroad, callers should dial 374 (country code) followed by 10 (Yerevan city code). For calls to mobile phones, the city code is 91 or 93 instead of 1.
For calls within Armenia to standard phones, the caller should dial 0 + City Code + Local Number. For calls within Armenia to cellular phone numbers, callers should dial 09 + the number. Calls within Yerevan not involving a cellular phone do not require a code. For international calls, callers should dial 00 + Country Code + City Code + Number. To dial out from a cellular phone to a regular land line the caller must dial 01 + Telephone Number. Finally, for calls between two cell phones, the 09 prefix is not needed.
ArmenTel offers international service that makes use of a satellite connection through InteleSat, AT&T, TeleGlobe, British Telecom, Sprint and France Tel.
