A
country code is a short alphabetic or numeric identifier used to represent countries in different systems such as communication, travel, and data processing. These codes help standardize how countries are recognized globally, making it easier for organizations, governments, and businesses to exchange information accurately.
One of the most common uses of country codes is in telephone dialing. For example, the country code for Pakistan is +92, while the United States uses +1. When making an international call, you must include the correct country code before the local phone number so the call is routed to the right country.
