Uganda's exit code is 000, a step longer than the usual 00 — another echo of the old East African shared plan. The zero on national numbers is a trunk digit: 0772 123 456 is +256 772 123 456. MTN holds much of 077x and 078x, Airtel 070x and 075x, and the plan is closed, so all ten digits are dialed everywhere.

Ten digits with the trunk zero: mobiles as 07xx plus six, Kampala landlines on 041.
