Several routes connect you to Sri Lanka (+94) landlines, calling cards and modern VoIP services. Pick the one that fits your call volume and budget.
Dial your exit code (00 from most countries, or 011 from North America), enter +94, then the local Sri Lanka number — dropping any leading 0. Sri Lanka's 2-digit country code puts it in ITU Zone 9 of the global E.164 numbering plan.
Sri Lanka uses a 2-digit country code (Zone 9). Check that the card lists +94 rates explicitly — mobile numbers in Sri Lanka often carry a different per-minute charge than landlines. Factor in the Asia/Colombo time zone when planning the call.
