There are two spellings for the Guinea area code, namely +224 and 00224. Which area code do you have to use? What is the difference between the two country codes for Guinea and what are the different versions for?

The country code of Guinea that starts with a “+” (i.e. +224) is the so-called international code (international spelling). It is primarily used in the mobile communications sector. Most cell phones can make an international call to Guinea using the +224 area code. This applies to almost every country in the world.

Unfortunately, there are phones (especially older models) that do not support the international spelling. The area code Guinea with leading zeros (00224) is then used on these phones. The leading zeros are also referred to as the so-called traffic elimination number. When you call, they indicate that it is an international call.
