Calling from Kenya to the United States

To call United States from Kenya, follow this exact dialing sequence:

000 + 1 + Area Code + 7-digit phone number
  • 000 - Kenya's international access code
  • 1 - United States country code
  • Area Code - Specific U.S. area code
  • 7-digit number - The local phone number

Example: To call (312) 555-0123 from Kenya, dial: 000 1 312 555 0123

Useful tip: Make every call connect properly by validating phone numbers using a US reverse phone identification service. If you know you should be calling to a specific U.S. city, let's say Amarillo, then you should use phone number lookup tool for Amarillo, Texas, or its area code (806).
