Anatomy of a Kenya phone number
Every Kenya number in international format follows this shape — colour-coded so you can see where the country code ends and the local number begins.
When dialing Kenya from abroad, the only fixed part is +254 — that's the country code. The rest depends on whether you're calling a mobile or landline number inside Kenya.
Mobile example
+XXX XXX XXXXXX
Dial the country code +254, then the full mobile number.
Example: +254 712 123456
Landline example
+254 XX XXXX XXX
Include the area code if applicable. Omit any leading 0.

How to dial Kenya numbers
Kenyan phone numbers use the prefix +254. Landlines have area codes (20 for Nairobi, 41 for Mombasa), and mobile numbers typically start with 07 or 01 locally. From abroad, drop the leading 0: a Safaricom number 0722-xxx-xxx becomes +254-722-xxx-xxx.
The +254 country code, explained
Kenya's international country code is +254. It was assigned by the International Telecommunication Union under recommendation E.164 and is the dialing prefix at the start of every Kenya phone number written in international format.
You'll often see +254 referred to in search as the "254 area code". Strictly speaking, +254 is a country code — area codes are sub-national, used inside Kenya. The practical meaning is the same: any number starting with +254 or 00254 is a Kenya number.
TwinPhone routes calls to every +254 number directly from your browser — no app, no SIM card, no calling card. Type +254 followed by the local number, press call, and you're connected.
