The international dialing code for Bangladesh is +880.
For mobile: +880 1X XXXXXXXX. For landline: +880 (area code) (subscriber number).
Mobile numbers contain 10 digits after the “1” prefix. Landline numbers vary but are typically 7–8 digits, including area code.

They don’t. Those prefixes are used in North America. Bangladeshi toll-free numbers typically start with 0800 but are only usable within Bangladesh.
Most traditional carriers charge per-minute fees. However, cloud phone systems like DialLink offer competitive international rates. Be cautious with free calling apps, which may limit quality or duration.
