Before you start: how to write a Kenyan mobile number
Kenya's country code is +254. Under the numbering plan of the Communications Authority of Kenya, mobile numbers have 10 digits inside Kenya and start with 07 or 01, for example 0712 345 678. From abroad, the first 0 is dropped and +254 goes in front, leaving 9 digits.
- How your relative writes it: 0712 345 678.
- How you write it from abroad: +254 712 345 678.
Remove the first 0 and check the 9 digits after +254 before you pay. The Communications Authority's numbering plan assigns 0110 to 0119 and 07 blocks such as 0710 to 0719 and 0790 to 0799 to Safaricom; 0100 to 0108 and blocks such as 0730 to 0739 and 0780 to 0789 to Airtel; and 0770 to 0779 to Telkom. If you're not sure, ask your relative which network they use.
