How to dial

Calling Dhaka from Abroad

+880+22+subscriber number

For a featured BTCL fixed line, dial domestic trunk 0 + the two-digit NDC + the eight-digit subscriber number. Remove only the initial 0 in international format: 022 becomes +880 22. Confirm the complete current number with the subscriber because legacy fixed-line numbers have been migrated in stages.

What the City Association Means

Dhaka is in BTRC’s Central Zone and uses featured BTCL geographic NDC 22, displayed domestically with trunk prefix as 022.

These pages cover the five complete BTCL geographic NDCs, not universal city codes. Other PSTN and IP-telephony operators combine their own network prefixes with the same zone structure and therefore use different NDCs. Each zone spans many districts, some administrative divisions cross numbering-zone boundaries, and migration from older local formats means a published address or business may still show a legacy number.
