Whose Number Is This in Algeria?
Algeria has one of North Africa's largest telecom markets. ARPCE reported 55.94 million active mobile subscribers in Q3 2025, compared with a 2025 World Bank population of 47.44 million, which means calls can come from personal SIMs, work SIMs, routers, modems, businesses, service desks, or repeated spam campaigns.
WhoseNo combines Algerian community reports with ARPCE numbering rules, Mobilis / Djezzy / Ooredoo prefix allocations, fixed-line area codes, VoIP and VSAT ranges, value-added service ranges, emergency short numbers, and current population / internet data so you can decide whether to answer, block, verify, or escalate an unknown +213 caller.
Common Spam Call Types
in Algeria
- Fake bank, OTP, wallet, and payment-card verification calls
- SIM registration, SIM-swap, fake ARPCE, or fake mobile-operator support calls
- Prize, job, visa, charity, immigration, and public-office impersonation calls
- Delivery, customs, tax, utility, and fee-payment scams
- Investment, crypto, loan, and trading calls using pressure tactics
- Premium callback, value-added service, 080xx, or unknown service-number callback lures
How to Identify Scam
Numbers
- Caller claims urgency or threatens consequences
- Requests personal info, PINs, or OTP codes
- Offers that sound too good to be true
- Unknown numbers calling repeatedly
Are Unknown Calls Always
Dangerous?
Not all unknown calls are harmful. Many legitimate callers include:
- Delivery services confirming orders
- Banks calling for legitimate verification
- Banks, delivery companies, clinics, hospitals, schools, universities, public services, telecom operators, utility providers, and business support teams
Pro Tip
Algerian prefixes show number family and original allocation, but caller ID can be spoofed and prefixes do not prove identity. Never share OTPs, card details, wallet PINs, banking passwords, SIM-registration details, ID scans, or remote-access permissions during an unsolicited call. Verify through the official app, website, branch, operator, or authority channel.

Algeria Number Formats
Algeria uses country code +213, international access prefix 00, and domestic trunk prefix 0. Mobile, VSAT, VoIP, and value-added ranges use the 10-digit ARPCE plan, while geographic fixed numbers remain 9 digits domestically.
- Country code: +213
- International access prefix from Algeria: 00
- Domestic trunk prefix: 0
- Mobile domestic format: 05XX XXX XXX, 06XX XXX XXX, or 07XX XXX XXX
- Mobile international format: +213 5XX XXX XXX, +213 6XX XXX XXX, or +213 7XX XXX XXX
- Fixed-line domestic format: 0XX XX XX XX, such as 021 XX XX XX for Algiers
- Fixed-line international format: +213 XX XX XX XX, such as +213 21 XX XX XX
- VoIP / non-geographic format: 0982 XXX XXX domestically, +213 982 XXX XXX internationally
- VSAT format: 0961 XXX XXX domestically, +213 961 XXX XXX internationally
- Emergency and social short numbers sit mainly in space 1 and do not follow ordinary subscriber-number formatting
Drop the domestic leading 0 after +213. For example, 0550 123 456 becomes +213 550 123 456.

Digital and Social Context

Reporting and Verification
- Use WhoseNo to report suspicious Algerian numbers and help other visitors spot repeated spam or scam activity.
- For telecom service disputes, contact the operator first, then use ARPCE claim / consumer channels if the issue remains unresolved.
- For suspected fraud, OTP theft, bank impersonation, payment requests, SIM takeover, or threats, stop the call and verify through the official bank, operator, police, or institution contact route.
- Use ARPCE numbering guidance for original prefix allocation; do not rely on prefixes alone as proof of the current person or organization behind a call.
- Mobile subscriptions and mobile connections can exceed population because one person or business may use multiple SIMs, modems, IoT lines, or work/personal connections.

Algeria uses country code +213. When writing an Algerian number internationally, drop the domestic trunk 0: 0550 123 456 becomes +213 550 123 456, and 021 XX XX XX becomes +213 21 XX XX XX.
ARPCE's numbering plan maps 0540, 0541, 0542, 0549, 0550-0559, 0560, 0561, and 0562 to Ooredoo / WTA; 0655-0659, 0660-0669, 0670-0676, and 0696-0699 to Mobilis / ATM; and 0770-0779, 0780-0784, and 0790-0799 to Djezzy / OTA. Prefixes are original-allocation hints, not proof of the current caller.
ARPCE reported 55,941,086 active mobile subscribers in Q3 2025, up 4.65% year over year. Mobilis had 23,477,942 active subscribers, Djezzy had 17,758,639, and Ooredoo had 14,704,505.
World Bank data lists Algeria's 2025 population at 47,435,312 and its 2024 population at 46,814,308. DataReportal Digital 2026, citing UN data, gave a late-2025 population context of about 47.6 million.

ARPCE lists 0982 for non-geographic VoIP, 0961 for VSAT, 08001 for freephone, 08011 / 08021 / 08031 / 08041 / 08051 / 08061 for value-added services, and 08080 / 08091 for games or competitions value-added services. These are service ranges, not ordinary personal mobile numbers.
Important Algerian short numbers include 14 and 1021 for civil protection, 17 and 1548 for police, 103 and 1055 for Gendarmerie, 1054 for coast guard, 1058 for air search and rescue, 1070 for forest fire, 1111 for child help-line, and 1590 for the Ministry of National Defence. Caller ID can be spoofed, so verify unsolicited calls independently.
Public 2025 telecom reports indicate that Algeria moved into 5G licensing and rollout context for Mobilis, Djezzy, and Ooredoo in late 2025. Availability should still be checked by city, device, SIM, and plan because service launches are phased.
Report the number on WhoseNo so other users can see repeated suspicious activity. For telecom service problems, contact the operator first and escalate unresolved issues through ARPCE consumer or claim channels. If money, card data, OTPs, SIM takeover, threats, or impersonation are involved, stop the call and contact the claimed bank, operator, police, or institution through official channels.
No. WhoseNo shows public numbering-plan context, likely line type, original allocation, area-code clues, and community reports. It does not access private ARPCE, operator, banking, national ID, or subscriber databases.
