Telephone numbers in Gibraltar

The country calling code to Gibraltar is +350, which was assigned to the territory by the International Telecommunication Union in the late 1960s.

In the 1970s there were three generations of automatic telephone exchange equipment in use with four and five-digit numbers, the latter prefixed with the digit '7'.

Direct telephone connections between Gibraltar and Spain were severed in 1969, when land communications between both territories were halted by the government of Francisco Franco, as a result of the Spanish sovereignty claim, and were not restored until 1986.

[5] Following the signing of the Córdoba Accord between the Governments of Gibraltar, the United Kingdom and Spain in September 2006, these restrictions were removed with effect from 10 February 2007.

Since 1 October 2008 telephone numbers for landlines and mobile phones in Gibraltar have been eight digits long.
