STD codes of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana

How to use these codes

• From a mobile or a landline in India: dial the STD code with its 0, then the landline number. For Hyderabad that is 040 and the number.
• From another country: dial +91, then the code without the 0, then the number: +91 40 and the number.
• Mobile numbers have no STD code. Dial the 10 digits as they are.

The STD code and the landline number together always make 10 digits, so a shorter code leaves room for a longer number. The shortest codes in this list: Hyderabad (040), Nellore (0861), Guntur (0863), Vijayawada (0866), Warangal (0870).

This list keeps the grouping of the telecom numbering plan, which is why two states or territories share this page.
