+64 Country Code
for New Zealand
New Zealand uses country calling code +64 and five broad geographic fixed-line codes: 03, 04, 06, 07 and 09. Domestic numbers include the leading trunk 0; international format removes it, so Auckland 09 becomes +64 9. Mobile 02X, freephone 0508 and 0800, premium-rate 0900 and other service numbers are separate non-geographic categories.

Quick answer
How to Use Country Code +64
The plus sign represents the international access method used by your phone or network.
Inside New Zealand
Example: 09 123 4567
Domestic trunk or access rule: 0.
Dialing detail
Remove the domestic leading 0 after +64: 09 123 4567 becomes +64 9 123 4567, and 03 123 4567 becomes +64 3 123 4567. From within New Zealand, 00 is the standard international access prefix.
Country Code vs. Area Code
+64 routes a call to New Zealand. A geographic area code then identifies a fixed-line numbering area or range. Do not create a duplicate global “64 area code” page for the same country-code intent.
Major Cities
Use a city page to see the applicable geographic code, format and regional limitations.
National Number Format
Geographic fixed-line numbers contain 8 digits after +64 and are dialled domestically as 9 digits with leading trunk 0; the local directory number contains 7 digits.
The five codes identify broad numbering regions rather than precise cities, and the NAD register allocates smaller code blocks to specific Local Interconnect Calling Areas. Number portability and nomadic or IP-based services can separate a geographic number from the user’s current physical location. Code 03 spans both mainland South Island time and the Chatham Islands’ 45-minute offset.
When to Call
Mainland New Zealand uses NZST (UTC+12) and NZDT (UTC+13); the Chatham Islands use UTC+12:45 and UTC+13:45
