+256 is the international dialing code for Uganda.
Uganda’s country code is +256, required when dialing Ugandan phone numbers from outside the country.
+256 replaces the leading “0” used in domestic Ugandan phone numbers. For example, 0781 234567 becomes +256 781 234567 when dialed internationally.
Remove the initial “0” and add +256. So, 0702 345678 becomes +256 702 345678.
From the U.S. or Canada:
Dial the international access code (011)
Add Uganda’s country code (256)
Enter the 9-digit phone number (without the starting 0)
Example: To call a mobile in Kampala: 011 256 772 XXX XXX. To call a landline: 011 256 41 XXX XXX.
