Country code Sint Maarten, +1 or 001?

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

The country code of Sint Maarten 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 Sint Maarten 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 area code Sint Maarten 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, variant 001 applies to calls to Sint Maarten, especially in Europe. In other countries of the world, the international code 001 will not work. Example: In the USA, international calls to Sint Maarten begin with 011. An international call here begins with the area code 0111.

Conclusion

The international variant (+1) of the international dialing code Sint Maarten works in all countries in the world. However, it is not supported in all networks and by all telephone devices.
