Afghan Phone Number Format

Afghan mobile phone numbers follow a standardised format. All Afghan numbers are 10 digits when written in local format (starting with 0), or 9 digits without the leading zero. When written in international format with the Afghanistan country code, they begin with +93 followed by the 9-digit number.

For example, a Kabul number might appear as: 0701234567 (local), 701234567 (without leading zero), or +93701234567 (international). All three refer to the same number. This tool normalises any of these variants into a consistent, internationally usable format.

Afghan Mobile Carriers Overview

  • AWCC (Afghan Wireless Communication Company): Afghanistan's first mobile operator, launched in 2002. Operates on GSM/3G/4G. Prefixes: 070x, 072x, 073x, 074x, 075x, 078x.
  • Roshan: One of the largest networks in Afghanistan. Launched in 2003. Prefixes: 070x, 071x, 073x, 074x, 079x.
  • MTN Afghanistan: South African multinational operator. Prefixes: 076x, 077x, 078x, 079x.
  • Etisalat Afghanistan: UAE-based operator. Prefixes: 071x, 072x, 076x, 079x.

Because Afghan carriers share overlapping number prefixes, carrier detection by prefix alone is not always definitive. This tool shows the most likely carrier and notes when a number could belong to multiple networks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Afghanistan's international country code is +93. When calling an Afghan number from abroad, dial +93 followed by the 9-digit local number (without the leading 0). For example: +93 70 123 4567.

Afghan mobile numbers are 10 digits in local format (including the leading 0), or 9 digits without the leading zero. In international format with +93, they are 11 digits total (excluding the +). Landline numbers may have different lengths depending on the province.

Afghan mobile number ranges are not always exclusively allocated to a single carrier. Multiple operators have been assigned overlapping prefixes, especially in the 070x, 073x, 074x, and 079x ranges. Number portability (the ability to keep your number when switching carriers) is also available, which further complicates prefix-based detection.
