Whose Number Is This in Egypt?
Egypt has a very large and active telecom market. MCIT/NTRA reported 125.65 million mobile subscriptions in March 2026, plus 94.43 million active voice-and-data mobile broadband subscriptions, so unknown mobile calls can come from ordinary users, businesses, delivery teams, banks, wallet providers, or spam campaigns.
WhoseNo combines community reports with Egyptian numbering rules, carrier-prefix hints, landline area codes, NTRA reporting guidance, and current digital-market context so you can decide whether to answer, block, verify, or escalate an unknown Egyptian number.

Egypt Number Formats
Egypt uses country code +20 and domestic trunk prefix 0. In international format, drop the leading 0 after the country code.
- Country code: +20
- International access prefix from Egypt: 00
- Domestic trunk prefix: 0
- Mobile domestic format: 010 XXXX XXXX, 011 XXXX XXXX, 012 XXXX XXXX, or 015 XXXX XXXX
- Mobile international format: +20 10 XXXX XXXX, +20 11 XXXX XXXX, +20 12 XXXX XXXX, or +20 15 XXXX XXXX
- Cairo / Giza landline example: 02 XXXX XXXX domestically, +20 2 XXXX XXXX internationally
- Alexandria landline example: 03 XXX XXXX domestically, +20 3 XXX XXXX internationally
- Other governorate landline example: 055 XXX XXXX domestically, +20 55 XXX XXXX internationally
- Short emergency and public-service numbers can be 3 digits; other short service codes can be 5 digits
Because mobile number portability is available, a prefix is best treated as original allocation or numbering-family context, not guaranteed live carrier identity.
Mobile Carrier Prefixes
The mobile prefixes below are the main Egyptian mobile numbering families visible to callers. They are useful for first-pass identification in WhoseNo, but number portability can change the active operator.
| Prefix | Original allocation / network | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 010 / +20 10 | Vodafone Egypt | Original mobile allocation. Egypt supports mobile number portability, so the live carrier can differ after porting. |
| 011 / +20 11 | Etisalat Misr / e& Egypt | Original mobile allocation. Use it as a carrier hint, not proof of the current network. |
| 012 / +20 12 | Orange Egypt | Original mobile allocation. Orange was formerly Mobinil in older numbering-plan references. |
| 015 / +20 15 | Telecom Egypt / WE | Telecom Egypt mobile allocation introduced with 4G licensing. NTRA moved 10th of Ramadan fixed numbering away from 015 before this mobile use. |
Geographic Area Codes
Egyptian fixed-line numbers use geographic area codes after the domestic trunk 0. The table covers the area codes published in the ITU/NTRA E.164 numbering-plan material and the 2017 update for 10th of Ramadan.
| Region | Area code | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cairo / Greater Cairo fixed lines | 02 / +20 2 | Cairo area code in the ITU/NTRA numbering plan; Giza exchanges also appear under the 02 numbering area. |
| Alexandria | 03 / +20 3 | Major fixed-line area code for Alexandria. |
| Qalyubia | 013 / +20 13 | Delta / Greater Cairo-adjacent fixed-line numbering area. |
| Gharbia | 040 / +20 40 | Delta governorate fixed-line numbering area. |
| Beheira | 045 / +20 45 | Delta / northwest fixed-line numbering area. |
| Matrouh | 046 / +20 46 | Northwest coast fixed-line numbering area. |
| Kafr El Sheikh | 047 / +20 47 | Delta fixed-line numbering area. |
| Monufia | 048 / +20 48 | Delta fixed-line numbering area. |
| Dakahlia | 050 / +20 50 | Delta fixed-line numbering area. |
| Sharqia / 10th of Ramadan | 055 / +20 55 | NTRA changed 10th of Ramadan fixed prefix from 015 to 055; 055 is also the Sharqia area code. |
| Damietta | 057 / +20 57 | Coastal Delta fixed-line numbering area. |
| Suez | 062 / +20 62 | Suez Canal fixed-line numbering area. |
| Ismailia | 064 / +20 64 | Suez Canal fixed-line numbering area. |
| Red Sea | 065 / +20 65 | Red Sea governorate fixed-line numbering area. |
| Port Said | 066 / +20 66 | Suez Canal / Mediterranean fixed-line numbering area. |
| North Sinai | 068 / +20 68 | Sinai fixed-line numbering area. |
| South Sinai | 069 / +20 69 | Sinai fixed-line numbering area. |
| Beni Suef | 082 / +20 82 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| Fayoum | 084 / +20 84 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| Minya | 086 / +20 86 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| Assiut | 088 / +20 88 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| New Valley | 092 / +20 92 | Western Desert fixed-line numbering area. |
| Sohag | 093 / +20 93 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| Luxor | 095 / +20 95 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| Qena | 096 / +20 96 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
| Aswan | 097 / +20 97 | Upper Egypt fixed-line numbering area. |
Short, Service, and Premium Number Families
Not every Egyptian caller ID is a normal personal mobile or household landline. These special number families help separate emergency/public service access, short codes, internet access ranges, and premium/service ranges.
| Range | Type | Caller-safety note |
|---|---|---|
| 1XX | Emergency / public short codes | Three-digit short-code family in the ITU/NTRA numbering plan. Treat real emergency calls differently from spoofed caller-ID appearances. |
| 16XXX and 19XXX | Short numbers | Five-digit short-number families used for public-facing, commercial, or service access. |
| 010, 011, 012, 015 | Mobile telephony | Domestic Egyptian mobiles are 11 digits including the trunk 0; international format drops the 0 and uses +20 10, +20 11, +20 12, or +20 15. |
| 02, 03, 013, 040, ... | Geographic fixed lines | Landlines use the domestic trunk 0 plus a one- or two-digit area code and a local subscriber number. Cairo/Giza uses 02. |
| 0707 and 0777 | Free internet access ranges | Non-geographic free internet ranges listed in the ITU/NTRA numbering-plan publication. |
| 0800 and 0900 | Premium-rate / service ranges | Non-geographic premium or service number families in the ITU/NTRA plan. Verify costs and caller identity before returning missed calls. |
Reporting, Portability, and Consumer Tools
NTRA publishes several routes for complaints and user protection. WhoseNo reports help other users, while NTRA channels are the official route for unresolved operator disputes and regulatory complaints.
| Channel / tool | Value | How it helps |
|---|---|---|
| NTRA complaint short number | 155 | NTRA lists the complaints center short number as available 8 am to 10 pm throughout the week. |
| Complaint email | [email protected] | Use after trying to resolve the matter with the operator first. |
| Complaint form | complaints.tra.gov.eg | Official online complaint route for unresolved operator disputes. |
| WhatsApp complaint channels | 01202155155, 01111115150, 01015515155, 01551515505 | NTRA publishes separate WhatsApp contact numbers aligned with the four mobile-prefix families. |
| My NTRA app | Complaints, MNP status, speed test, quality map, My Lines, My Tariff | The app lets users check lines registered under their National ID, track portability requests, test internet speed, and review/cancel services. |
| Unified VAS control code | *155# | Free code to inquire about or cancel value-added entertainment services such as music, games, news, and promotional subscriptions. |
| Mobile number portability | Keep the same number when changing operator | NTRA supports MNP, so mobile prefixes indicate original allocation rather than guaranteed current operator. |
Mobile Wallet and Payment-Scam Context
Mobile-wallet adoption is now large enough that wallet impersonation, OTP theft, fake transfer confirmations, and account-security calls are important caller-safety patterns in Egypt.
| Wallet indicator | Latest value | Caller-safety note |
|---|---|---|
| Active mobile wallets | 46.3 million in Q2 2025 | NTRA report for April-June 2025. |
| Transactions | 718 million in Q2 2025 | NTRA report; total value about EGP 943 billion. |
| Wallet distribution by operator | Vodafone Cash 55%, e& Cash 21%, Orange Cash 19%, WE Pay 5% | Share of active wallets in the NTRA Q2 2025 report. |
| Transaction share by operator | Vodafone Cash 78%, e& Cash 11%, Orange Cash 10%, WE Pay 1% | Share of financial transactions in the NTRA Q2 2025 report. |
| Main transaction type | Wallet-to-wallet transfers: 54% of transactions | Wallet-to-wallet transfers also represented 71% of transaction value in the NTRA report. |
| Fraud-control context | Enhanced mobile-wallet security controls required in Q2 2025 | NTRA required mobile wallet providers to apply stronger security controls to reduce fraud risks. |

Frequently Asked Question
Everything you need to know about phone number lookup in Egypt
Enter the Egyptian number in WhoseNo to review community reports, likely number type, mobile-prefix context, landline area-code clues, spam tags, and comments from other users. For serious fraud or unresolved operator issues, also use NTRA complaint channels.
Egypt uses country code +20. When calling an Egyptian mobile from abroad, drop the domestic leading zero: 010 XXXX XXXX becomes +20 10 XXXX XXXX.
Egyptian mobiles commonly start with 010 for Vodafone Egypt, 011 for Etisalat Misr / e& Egypt, 012 for Orange Egypt, and 015 for Telecom Egypt / WE. Because Egypt supports mobile number portability, the prefix is an original-allocation hint rather than guaranteed live-carrier proof.
MCIT/NTRA's April 2026 ICT Indicators in Brief shows 125.65 million mobile subscriptions in March 2026, with mobile penetration of 112.61%. This is a subscriptions metric, so it can exceed the number of individual people.
MCIT/NTRA reported 94.43 million active voice-and-data mobile broadband subscriptions and 4.06 million data-only mobile broadband subscriptions in March 2026. DataReportal's Digital 2026 Egypt report estimated 98.2 million internet users in October 2025.
Major Egyptian landline area codes include 02 for Cairo / Greater Cairo, 03 for Alexandria, 013 for Qalyubia, 040 for Gharbia, 050 for Dakahlia, 055 for Sharqia and 10th of Ramadan, 062 for Suez, 066 for Port Said, 088 for Assiut, 095 for Luxor, and 097 for Aswan.
Yes. Egypt moved into commercial 5G service in 2025 through the four mobile operators: Vodafone Egypt, Orange Egypt, Etisalat Misr / e& Egypt, and Telecom Egypt / WE. Availability can vary by area, device, SIM, and plan.
Report the number on WhoseNo to warn other users. If it involves a telecom operator dispute, NTRA lists complaint options including short number 155, [email protected], complaints.tra.gov.eg, WhatsApp complaint numbers, and the My NTRA app. Contact your bank immediately if money, card details, wallet access, or OTPs were exposed.
Common patterns include fake bank security calls, OTP theft, mobile-wallet impersonation, SIM registration or device-registration claims, delivery or customs payment scams, fake prize and job calls, investment fraud, and callers pretending to represent a government office or telecom operator.
End the call and verify through the official bank, wallet, operator, or government channel. Real support teams should not pressure you to share OTPs, wallet PINs, full card data, remote-access app permissions, or National ID details during an unsolicited call.
No. WhoseNo shows public, formatting, numbering-plan, and community-reported information. It does not provide private NTRA, operator, National ID, bank, or subscriber databases.
Telecom subscriptions, active internet users, domestic population counters, and UN total-population estimates use different definitions. For Egypt, MCIT/NTRA subscription penetration, CAPMAS domestic population, World Bank/UNFPA population, and GSMA/DataReportal mobile-connection figures should be read as complementary metrics.
