How numbers in Pakistan are built
A number in Pakistan is the country code +92 followed by a national number of 9 or 10 digits. The trunk prefix, where there is one, is dropped after the code.
Written locally as 0301 2345678, an example mobile number in Pakistan is dialed as +92 301 2345678 from abroad.
Leave out the leading 0 when you dial it with the country code.
Why a call to Pakistan fails to connect
- Keeping the leading 0: after +92 it is one digit too many, and the network rejects the call.
- Leaving out 00 (or +): without it your carrier reads 92 as the start of a number in the United Arab Emirates, not as a country code.
- A wrong number of digits: a number in Pakistan has 9 or 10 digits after +92.
Best time to call
Pakistan is 1 h ahead of the United Arab Emirates. When it is 12:00 in the United Arab Emirates, it is 13:00 in Pakistan.
That gap stays the same all year, because neither country changes its clocks relative to the other.
The United Arab Emirates does not change its clocks for daylight saving, so the offset stays UTC+4 all year.
Pakistan does not change its clocks for daylight saving, so the offset stays UTC+5 all year.
The weekend in Pakistan is Saturday and Sunday.
