Phone calls
Edit ThisThe international country code for Switzerland is +41.
The local code for the city Zurich is 043. If you need to call someone in the canton of Zurich, use 044.
If you call from abroad, dial +41 43 ...
Till the beginning of 2005 both the canton and the city had the local
code 01. Sometimes you can still see the old code in ads, business
cards etc. Don't forget to dial the new code.
