How to call France from the US

Calling internationally doesn’t need to be difficult
Before you call...
Check these 3 things:
Are you calling a mobile number?
If you’re calling a mobile number in France, you can follow the same steps as if you are calling a landline.
Does the number have a trunk code? + 2
A trunk code is a prefix added for domestic calls – you won’t need to dial it when calling internationally.
Is your phone set up for international calls?
Not all phones come with international calling out of the box. With GoTo Connect, you get free international calling to 50+ countries.
