Calling the Netherlands: number formats

The country code for the Netherlands is +31. When you dial from abroad, drop the leading 0 from the domestic number:

  • Mobile numbers start with 06 and have 10 digits including the 0. Dial +31 6 followed by the eight remaining digits, for example +31 6 12345678.
  • Landlines start with a 2 or 3 digit area code, such as 020 for Amsterdam, 010 for Rotterdam or 030 for Utrecht. Dial +31 followed by the area code without its 0, for example +31 20 xxx xxxx.
  • 0800 toll-free numbers are usually not reachable from outside the Netherlands. Look for an international number the company publishes instead.

The Netherlands uses Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) in summer, with clocks changing on the same dates as the rest of the EU. It is six hours ahead of New York and one hour ahead of London in winter, and the gap changes when the US and UK change their clocks.
