Calling Egypt from Saudi Arabia: what to know

Egypt answers on the country code +20, with the capital in Cairo and most business concentrated around Cairo, Alexandria and Giza. The working language for business is Arabic, and local offices generally keep hours of 9:00 to 17:00 Sunday Thursday in most companies.

From Saudi Arabia the outbound access code is 00, so a manual dial reads 00 then +20 then the local number. Intercalling removes that step: the call goes through your browser, so there is nothing to install and no SIM card to swap when you travel between Saudi Arabia and Egypt.

Most mobiles in Egypt sit on operators such as Vodafone Egypt, Orange Egypt, Etisalat Misr (e&). Egyptian mobile numbers are 11 digits starting with 01; drop the 0 after +20.

Egypt runs on UTC plus 2, and it shifts for daylight saving, so confirm the current difference before an early or late call.
