Calling Sierra Leone

How to phone Sierra Leone from the UK

Sierra Leone uses the country code +232.

From the United Kingdom you need to dial:

00232
then the full national number minus any leading 0

Example

Sierra Leone number: 022 345678
Dialled from the UK as: 00 232 22 345678

Numbers beginning with +232

Sometimes, the number you want to call may already be written out including the +232 country code. For example:

  • +232 22 345678
  • +232 (0)22 345678

In such cases, you just replace the '+' with the UK international access code of 00 and ignore any reference to '(0)'. Both the examples above would be dialled as: 00 232 22 345678.
