Questions about +224
Which country is +224?

What is +224?
+224 is the code you dial before a Guinean number when you call from outside Guinea. Guinean numbers have no leading 0 to drop, so +224 goes straight before the full local number.
What is the difference between +224 and 00224?
The + stands for your own exit code. 00 is the exit code in Guinea, Europe, and most of the world, so 00224 and +224 reach the same number from there, since Guinean numbers have no leading 0 to drop. From the US and Canada, dial 011 224 instead.
Can I text a +224 number?
Yes. Write the number as +224 followed by the full local number, and your phone sends the text abroad at your carrier's international rate.

A call to a Guinean mobile can cost more than a call to a landline. The dialer on this page shows the exact price of the number you enter before you call.

Does Conakry have one area code?
No. Guinea's capital uses four area codes: 3041, 3043, 3045, and 3047, not a single code for the whole city.
