Two quirks: the international exit code is 000 rather than 00, and shortcuts 005 and 006 still reach Kenya and Uganda directly — a relic of the East African shared plan that lasted until 1999. The zero is a trunk digit, so 0712 345 678 is +255 712 345 678. Vodacom, Airtel, Tigo and Halotel crowd the 06x and 07x ranges.

Ten digits with the trunk zero: mobiles start 06 or 07, Dar es Salaam landlines with 022.
