How to write a Afghanistan number in E.164
- Remove spaces, dashes, dots and brackets so only digits are left.
- If the number starts with the trunk prefix 0, remove it. It is only used when dialling inside Afghanistan.
- Put +93 in front. The result has 9 digits after the country code for a mobile.
So 070 123 4567 becomes +93701234567. E.164 is the format SMS gateways, dialers and most CRMs store; see the E.164 format explained for why.
Mobile or landline?
Afghanistan allocates separate number ranges to mobiles and landlines, so a numbering-plan check reads the line type straight from the digits, for free. That type describes the range the number came from. It doesn’t prove the number is connected today.

- How do I write a Afghanistan number in international format?

- Can you tell if a Afghanistan number is a mobile?
- Usually, yes. Afghanistan numbers come from ranges allocated separately to mobiles and landlines, so a numbering-plan check reads the line type from the digits. It tells you what the range is for, not whether the number is in service.
