An exit code (also called IDD prefix or international access code) is the number you dial to indicate you're making an international call. Different countries have different exit codes - for example, from the US/Canada it's 011, from most European countries it's 00.
On mobile phones, you can usually skip the exit code by using the + symbol instead. Press and hold the 0 key to get +. The + tells your phone to automatically use the correct exit code for your location.
No, when dialing internationally you should remove any leading 0 from the local number. The leading 0 is a trunk prefix used only for domestic calls within the country.
Common issues include: dialing the wrong country code, including the leading 0, using the wrong number of digits, or network restrictions. Make sure the number format matches the destination country's requirements.
