The +33 country code, explained
France's international country code is +33. It was assigned by the International Telecommunication Union under recommendation E.164 and is the dialing prefix at the start of every France phone number written in international format.
You'll often see +33 referred to in search as the "33 area code". Strictly speaking, +33 is a country code — area codes are sub-national, used inside France. The practical meaning is the same: any number starting with +33 or 0033 is a France number.
TwinPhone routes calls to every +33 number directly from your browser — no app, no SIM card, no calling card. Type +33 followed by the local number, press call, and you're connected.
