What is the Phone Number Format in Rwanda?

Most phone numbers in Rwanda are written in the following formats:

   Prefix: long distance or international
   --------------------------------------
   |   Carrier or area code 
   |   --------------------
   |   |   Subscriber number
   |   |   -----------------
   v   v   v
       AAA SSS SSS      - Local format
  +250 AAA SSS SSS      - International format

Most telephone numbers in Rwanda have 9 digits and are written in the format of "AAA SSS SSS". Here are some examples: 788 177 000; 785 833 843.

When dialing locally inside Rwanda, dial the phone number directly as "AAA SSS SSS". Long distance prefix is not needed.

When dialing from outside of Rwanda, the international dial-in prefix "+250" is required. So the format becomes "+250 AAA SSS SSS".

When dialing from Rwanda to other countries, the international dail-out prefix "+" or "00" required.
