Reminders The numbering plan in Metropolitan France is a closed plan with the following format: CC + N(S)N (nine digits) where: CC = country code N(S)N= national (significant) number And, more specifically: +33 ZABPQMCDU in Metropolitan France or +262 ZABPQMCDU in, for example, French Departments and territories in the Indian Ocean. (It is customary practice in France for the sequence of digits of a national (significant) number (N(S)N) to be designated by the following letters: 1st digit: Z, 2nd digit: A, 3rd digit: B, 4th digit: P, 5th digit: Q, 6th digit: M, 7th digit: C, 8th digit: D, 9th digit: U.)

For further details The number blocks are described on the website of the Autorité de Régulation des Communications électroniques et des Postes (ARCEP) http://www.art-telecom.fr/interactive/numeros/index-d1.htm Through this page, you will obtain: – either the list of operators with the PQ digits assigned to them, whereupon their addresses may be obtained by clicking on the “adresse” link. – Or the message “il y a plus de 50 réponses, veuillez préciser par un chiffre supplémentaire”. [“There are over 50 replies, please specify further by indicating an additional digit”]. The sequences of values 0ZAB0, 0ZAB1, 0ZAB2, etc., should be entered into the search engine in order to obtain the operators’ names, and subsequently their addresses by clicking on the “adresse” link. The numbering information is updated each week by the Autorité de Régulation des Communications électroniques et des Postes (ARCEP). Numbers recently assigned to operators are therefore readily obtainable and can be taken into account by operators from other countries.
