Dialing Cameroon directly couldn't be simpler: add 237, dial, and connect, all through your existing carrier.
A prepaid card makes calling Cameroon more affordable, asking only that you dial an access number first.
Call Cameroon the modern, low-cost way with MeraTalk — HD voice over the internet, ready in minutes.
Full dialing sequence
Start by dialing your own country's international access code. From the US or Canada this is 011; from most of Europe it's 00. This tells your network you're making an international call.
Immediately follow with Cameroon's country code — no spaces or dashes. This routes your call to Cameroon's telephone network. On smartphones, replace the exit code with a + sign.
Add the city or regional code for your destination in Cameroon. If the local number starts with a 0 (trunk prefix), drop it — the country code replaces it when dialing internationally.
Enter all remaining digits of the local number exactly as written. For mobile numbers, include every digit — no abbreviations. Press call and your carrier does the rest.
A steady internet signal is what keeps your call clear from beginning to end, so check it first.
For the best listening experience when calling Cameroon, a good headset makes a real difference.
Before reaching out, confirm it's a sensible time in UTC+1 on the other end.
The price of calling Cameroon is largely a choice — and VoIP is the choice that keeps costs down.
