Question

What is a telephone access code?

Answer 1

Access codes are the numbers used to dial a particular country (each country has a unique access, or country, code).

For example, to call someone in Italy you would enter 011 (international access code) followed by 39 (the access code for Italy) followed by the persons phone number.

You can see a list of all access codes here:
