As a party outside Germany, can I also get a German number?
Yes you can. But it depends if you have a local office or not. At Belfabriek you can get 3 different types of German phone numbers, which we will briefly explain below.
Local numbers
Just like many other countries in Germany regional codes are used. Berlin has area code 030.
Does your company have a strong connection to the Berlin region? Then you can order a 030 number through Belfabriek. Belfabriek can register all possible area codes.
Please note: a German local phone number requires a local address. This means that you cannot apply for a local area code without having a business address in the city concerned.
National numbers
Would you like to offer your products and/or services throughout Germany? Then a national number 032 is perfect for this. These numbers are not linked to a specific city or region and therefore have a national image. Callers can call these numbers at local rates. There are no additional costs compared to local landline numbers.
0800 numbers (freephone number)
Germany also has 0800 numbers, which callers can call free of charge. The owner of the number pays all call charges. These numbers are great for charities and for highly competitive industries. It is important to note that toll-free 0800 numbers cannot be called from abroad.
