History
South Africa adopted nationwide ten-digit dialing in the mid-2000s. Current regulations define geographic areas alongside non-geographic mobile, toll-free, VoIP, premium-rate and machine-related ranges.
Telephone areas do not always follow provincial borders. Province pages and telephone-zone pages are separate entities, and a prefix alone does not prove a caller’s current physical location or carrier.
