Country code Luxembourg, +352 or 00352?

There are two spellings for the Luxembourg area code, namely +352 and 00352. Which area code do you have to use? What is the difference between the two country codes for Luxembourg and what are the different versions for?

The country code of Luxembourg that starts with a “+” (i.e. +352) 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 Luxembourg using the +352 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 Luxembourg area code with leading zeros (00352) 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 00352

In fact, the 00352 variant is used for calls to Luxembourg, especially in Europe. In other countries of the world, the international code 00352 will not work. Example: In the USA, international calls to Luxembourg begin with 011. An international call here begins with the area code 011352.

Conclusion

For calls from UK to Luxembourg you can always use the country code 00352. In other countries, the two leading zeros must be replaced by a different access code. The international variant (+352) of the country code Luxembourg works in all countries in the world. However, it is not supported in all networks and by all telephone devices.
