KEY RULES
Romanian phone numbers follow a standardized format. Keep these rules in mind when dialing from Spain to ensure your call connects.
When calling from Spain to Romania, always start with +40. Omitting the country code will result in a failed call.
Romanian landline area codes range from 1 to 3 digits and vary by city. The most common are 21 (Bucharest), 31 (Ploiești), and 241 (Constanța). Area codes are mandatory for landline calls.
Romanian mobile numbers use operator codes 70, 71, 72, 75, 76, 77, 78, and 79. These codes must be included immediately after +40.
Romania does not require additional prefixes or codes for international dialing from Spain. Simply dial +40 and the number.
Romanian toll-free numbers (starting with 0800) and premium-rate numbers may have routing restrictions. For reliable connection, use standard landlines or mobile numbers.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Most calls connect smoothly, but here are solutions to common dialing and connection issues.
Verify you entered the full number with +40 and the correct area code or mobile prefix. Double-check for typos. If the number is correct and still fails, the recipient's phone may be off, or the line may be temporarily unavailable.
Audio issues are usually due to your internet connection. Move closer to your router, reduce background noise, or try calling again at a different time. Sayfone uses your existing internet—a strong connection ensures better sound.
If your call cuts off unexpectedly, restart your browser or reconnect to a stronger WiFi signal. Temporary network issues on either end can interrupt calls. Try calling again.
Some special numbers (e.g., 0800 toll-free lines or premium-rate numbers) may not route correctly internationally. Try calling a regular landline or mobile number instead.
Sayfone shows your rate upfront before each call. The displayed rate (8¢/min to Romania) applies to all calls on this route. If you see a higher charge, contact support with your call details.
