Telephone numbers in the Netherlands Antilles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article covers telephone numbers in the Netherlands Antilles.
[edit] County Calling Code
+599 is the country calling code used in the Netherlands Antilles. It is used in the Dutch Territories of Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Sint Eustatius, and Sint Maarten.
[edit] Area codes
Originally each island had an area code each with the length of the local numbering varying from island to island (Curaçao had six while Bonaire had only four), however beginning in 1999, the numbers were modified so that each local number was seven digits long. This change left the islands without any area codes, except for Curaçao, which has the area code of 9 along with the seven digit local number.
