Country code Antigua and Barbuda, +1 or 001?

There are two spellings for the Antigua and Barbuda area code, namely +1 and 001. Which area code do you have to use? What is the difference between the two country codes for Antigua and Barbuda and what are the different versions for?

The country code of Antigua and Barbuda that starts with a “+” (i.e. +1) 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 Antigua and Barbuda using the +1 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 Antigua and Barbuda area code with leading zeros (001) 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.

Problem: Access code and area code 001

In fact, the 001 variant applies to calls to Antigua and Barbuda, especially in Europe. In other countries of the world, the international code 001 will not work. Example: In the USA, international calls to Antigua and Barbuda start with 011. So an international call here starts with the area code 0111.
