How to call Canada from Nigeria

In short

To call Canada from Nigeria, dial the plus sign, then 1, the three digit area code and the number. With Intercalling you call straight from your browser, no app and no SIM, for about $0.046 a minute, the same flat rate for landline and mobile. The first call is free and you pay per minute after.

The Canadian code and area codes

Canada uses +1, the same code as the United States, because both countries share one numbering plan. After the +1 comes a three digit area code and a seven digit number. Toronto uses 416 and 647, Montreal uses 514, Vancouver uses 604 and Calgary uses 403.

There is no price difference between calling a mobile or a landline in Canada, so you do not need to think about the type of line. With Intercalling you simply enter the plus sign, 1, the area code and the number.

Why Nigerians call Canada so often

Canada is one of the most common destinations for Nigerians abroad, with large communities in cities like Toronto, Brampton and Calgary. Keeping in touch with family and friends there can be expensive on a local SIM, especially for long conversations.

With Intercalling the call runs over wifi or data, so there is no airtime to buy and no roaming. You can call from your laptop or your phone, and the person you reach answers on their ordinary phone without needing any app.

Cost and the time difference

Calling Canada costs about $0.046 a minute, the same for mobile and landline, plus a small $0.004 connection fee per call. Billing is per minute with no monthly plan, and the credit you load never expires.

Canada spans several time zones. The east, where Toronto and Montreal sit, is about six hours behind Nigeria, while the west, like Vancouver, is further behind. It is worth checking the city before you call so you reach people at a good hour.

An example of timing a call to Toronto

Because Toronto sits about six hours behind Nigeria, the maths is easy once you have an example. When it is 4pm in Lagos it is roughly 10am in Toronto, which is a good time to catch someone at the start of their working day. Vancouver is about nine hours behind, so the same 4pm in Lagos is around 7am there.

If you are calling a relative before they sleep, your late evening in Nigeria reaches the Canadian afternoon, which is a comfortable window. Sorting the hour out first means you reach people when they are awake and free to talk rather than guessing and ringing at a bad time. A quick check before you dial saves a missed call and a worried message at an odd hour.

How browser calling reaches a Canadian phone

Intercalling places the call from your browser tab using your internet connection and your device microphone, then hands it onto the ordinary phone network in Canada. That is why the person you reach answers a normal landline or mobile and needs nothing on their side.

It runs in Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox on a laptop or a phone, so there is nothing to install and no SIM to manage. Allow the microphone when asked, dial +1, the area code and the number, and the call connects in a few seconds. The voice comes through in clear HD quality, the same as any ordinary call, as long as your wifi or data connection is steady.
