IMPORTANT RULES

Bangladesh Dialing Rules

Understand the key differences between landline and mobile dialing, and how to format numbers correctly.

Landline numbers include area code

Bangladesh landlines require the area code (first digit or two) after the country code. For example, Dhaka area code is 2, so a Dhaka landline is +880 2 XXXX XXXX.

Mobile numbers start with 01

Bangladesh mobile numbers always begin with 01 after the country code. The format is +880 1XX XXX XXXX, where the second digit indicates the carrier (Grameenphone: 13–18, Banglalink: 10–12, Robi: 19).

Dial +880 from Qatar using 00 or +

When dialing from Qatar, use 00 to access the international network, followed by 880. On mobile devices, + may be easier to enter.

No leading zero after country code

When dialing internationally, drop any leading 0 from the area code. Dial +880 2 XXXX XXXX, not +880 02 XXXX XXXX.

During Bangladesh national holidays, offices may be closed; confirm dates before calling.

Avoid calling during prayer times (Zuhr and Asr) if calling a business during midday.

COMMON ISSUES

Troubleshooting & Restrictions

Learn what to do if your call doesn't connect and which numbers may have limitations.

Call doesn't connect after dialing

Verify the number format (country code 880, area code, and 7–8 digit local number). Check that you have entered the correct area code for the city. If the number is correct, the recipient's phone may be off, out of range, or their network may be temporarily unavailable.

Call connects but sounds poor or drops

International call quality depends on both your Qatar network and the Bangladesh recipient's connection. Move to a stronger signal area, use WiFi if available, and try the call again during a different time of day when networks are less congested.

Premium or special numbers may not work

Some premium-rate numbers, government hotlines, or special services may not be reachable via international calling. Try contacting the organization through an alternative number or email.

Verify the rate before calling

Sayfone displays the rate for Bangladesh (10¢/min) before you connect. If the rate shown is different, confirm you have selected the correct country code (+880) for Bangladesh.
