DIALING STEPS
Follow these simple steps to connect your call to Turkey from Iran.
Start by dialing +90, which is Turkey's international country code. If using a phone without + support, dial 0090 or 90 (depending on your carrier).
+90 (or 0090)
Turkey uses two-digit area codes for landlines. For example, Istanbul uses 212 or 216, Ankara uses 312, and İzmir uses 232. Mobile numbers do not require a separate area code.
For Istanbul landline: +90 212
Complete the call by entering the local phone number. Landlines are typically 7 digits; mobile numbers are 10 digits (including the mobile carrier prefix starting with 5).
Full Istanbul number: +90 212 1234567

DIALING RULES
Turkey has standardized numbering that works consistently for landlines and mobiles. Review these rules to ensure successful calls.
International calls to Turkey must begin with +90. You cannot omit the country code when calling from Iran.
Turkish landlines always require a two-digit area code after the country code. The full number is 10 digits including the area code.
Turkish mobile numbers are identified by a five-digit carrier prefix (typically starting with 5). The full mobile number is 10 digits, with no separate area code.
When calling internationally from Iran, do not include a leading 0 before the area code. The 0 is only used for domestic calls within Turkey.
TIMING TIPS
Plan your calls during overlapping business hours or convenient times for your contact. Turkey and Iran have a small time difference.
Turkey is typically 2.5 hours ahead of Iran, but this can vary depending on daylight saving time observance. Always confirm the local time before calling.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If your call doesn't connect, review these common causes and solutions.
Verify you've entered +90 (Turkey's country code) at the start. Check the area code and local number format. If using Sayfone, ensure your browser allows microphone access and you have a stable internet connection.
International calls may have slight delays due to network routing. This is normal. If quality is persistently poor, try calling during off-peak hours (late evening Iran time) when networks are less congested.
The recipient's line may be in use or the number may be incorrect. Verify the phone number, wait a moment, and try again. Some special numbers (toll-free or premium services) may not connect from Iran; try a standard landline or mobile instead.
Sayfone's browser-based calling requires a modern browser and microphone access. Check your browser permissions, allow microphone access, and refresh the page. If the problem persists, try a different browser.
