How to call Thailand from abroad
Thai landlines are 9 digits at home and mobiles are 10, both starting with 0, which you drop from abroad. A plan to make all landlines 10 digits was put on hold in 2024 until numbers run short.
Mobile numbers: Mobiles start with 06, 08 or 09 and have 10 digits locally: 08x xxx xxxx, or +66 8x xxx xxxx from abroad. An example in international format: +66 8x xxx xxxx.

Landline numbers start with a city code. From abroad, it comes right after +66, without the 0 used inside the country.
