    Hi,

    My friend is travelling to Dubai with his mobile. When I text him will I need to add the prefix with the dialling code (+971) or can I just use his number as normal?

    What happens if I were to use +44? Would this still work?

    Since your friend has international roaming on his phone you just have to send him a text message like you normally do. No additional codes required.

Heads-up

Some information on these forums could be outdated - countries change their numbering plans periodically. We recommend using our top menu to double check the correct instructions for dialing to a specific country.
