How to call Lebanon from Canada

In short

To call Lebanon from Canada, dial the plus sign or 011, then the country code 961, then the number. With Intercalling you call from your browser for about $0.50 per minute to a landline and $1.12 to a mobile, with no app and no SIM. The first call is free.

The Lebanon code and how to dial

Lebanon uses the country code +961. Lebanese numbers written locally start with a zero, and that zero comes off when you call from abroad. A Beirut landline written as 01 and the rest becomes +961 1 and the rest on an international call.

Mobiles start with 03, 70, 71, 76, 78, 79 or 81 locally, and the leading zero is dropped the same way. With Intercalling you simply type the plus sign, 961 and the number in your browser, with no exit code needed.

Area codes around the country

Lebanese landlines carry a single digit or two digit area code after the country code. Beirut is 1, Mount Lebanon is 4 or 5, the North around Tripoli is 6, the South around Sidon and Tyre is 7, and the Bekaa around Zahle is 8. So a Tripoli landline reads +961 6 and the rest, and a Zahle landline reads +961 8 and the rest.

Mobiles are different, with the leading digits like 3, 70, 71, 76, 78, 79 or 81 marking the line as mobile rather than tying it to a place. Recognising these at a glance tells you both where a landline is and, more importantly for cost, whether you are about to reach a mobile.

Landline and mobile cost more differently

Lebanon is one of the destinations where the type of line matters a lot for cost. A landline runs about $0.50 per minute with Intercalling, while a mobile runs about $1.12 per minute. If you have a choice of which number to dial, the landline is the cheaper option for a long conversation.

Billing is by the minute with no monthly plan, a small $0.004 connection fee applies per call, and the credit you add never expires, so you can keep a small balance ready for whenever you need it.

Calling home without roaming

Intercalling runs entirely in the browser, so there is no app to install and no SIM to swap. It works in Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox on a desktop or a phone, and the relative you call answers on their normal handset.

Lebanon is seven hours ahead of Toronto and ten hours ahead of Vancouver. So when it is 9 in the morning in Toronto, it is 4 in the afternoon in Beirut, a practical time to reach family. Early morning in Canada usually catches the late afternoon or evening in Lebanon.

The Lebanese community in Canada

Canada has one of the largest Lebanese communities outside the Middle East, with deep roots in Montreal, Ottawa and the Greater Toronto Area. Many families maintain daily contact with relatives in Beirut, Tripoli and villages across Mount Lebanon and the South.

For households calling home often, the gap between landline and mobile pricing is worth planning around. Where an older relative keeps a landline, dialling it rather than a mobile roughly halves the per minute cost. The first call is free with no card, so you can test the connection to Lebanon before adding any balance.
