Follow this dialing procedure to make an overseas international call from New Zealand to a landline or mobile phone number in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India.

Note that some mobile operators may not require an IDD and/or allow use of substitute characters (such as '+') in lieu of an international access code.

2. Dial India country code:  91 

3. Remove '0' if one precedes your number

If your Coimbatore destination phone number starts with a '0' - e.g., 0 422 454 8180 or 0 94 631 23456, delete the '0'.

4. Determine if calling to a landline or mobile phone

Coimbatore landline numbers are 7-digits and require a separate 3-digit area code. Mobile numbers are 10-digits and do not require a separate area code. Check here to learn how to tell landline vs. mobile phone numbers.

5. If calling a Coimbatore landline phone number...

a. Dial the 3-digit Coimbatore area code:  422 

b. Dial a 7-digit local subscriber number:  nnn nnnn 

6. If calling a Coimbatore mobile phone number...

NOTE: In addition to '9x' series mobile numbers, India now also issues '8x' series mobile numbers in the same 10-digit format:  8x nnn nnnnn.

Confusingly, the area codes used for landline numbers in some areas also start with '8x'. An example is Bangalore which uses area code '80'. But where landline '8x' area codes are tied to a specific region, mobile '8x' numbers can be issued for any location nationally.
