When an Ethiopian number begins with a domestic 0, omit that first zero after +251. Preserve the remaining mobile or geographic prefix and subscriber digits.
Masked geographic and mobile examples
Addis Ababa geographic landline: 011 123 XXXX → +251 11 123 XXXX. Ethiopian mobile: 091 123 XXXX → +251 91 123 XXXX.
One prefix to remove, the rest to keep
The domestic leading zero is not the same as the rest of the national number. Keep the full remaining digits so Dadaphone can identify the destination and offer the appropriate mobile or landline rate.
Confirm what your contact means by the time
Use the Addis Ababa clock below and agree a clear time with your recipient. For a company, check the hours it publishes locally; for a personal call, specify morning or evening to avoid an ambiguous arrangement.
Why the examples are masked
Final subscriber digits are replaced with X so the examples explain number structure without publishing a number to call. Verify the real contact number and the identified destination before continuing.
Questions before you call
Do I keep Ethiopia's leading 0 after +251?
Omit the domestic first zero and put +251 before the remaining national number. Keep every digit after that domestic prefix.
