    When I take my cell phone with me to India, what should my brother back in the United States dial to reach me?
    Is it as simple as putting the prefix 011 before my area code or do I have to add the Inida country code?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Bob,

    It’s actually much simpler: nothing changes in the way people in the US call your number when you travel abroad. Here’s an article explaining in detail how international cell phone roaming works

    Dial 011(US international code)+91(India’s Country code)+Area code+local phone number

    To cellishiegel,

    The OP above inquired about how people from the US would call his US cell while roaming in India, and not how to dial an Indian phone from the US.
