Until 1994, Andorra formed part of the French numbering plan, with the prefix 628 being used for calls from France[1] (or 16 628 from Paris)[2] while +33 628 was used from the rest of the world.[3] Access was also possible via the Spanish numbering plan using the area code 9738, or the international prefix +34 738.[2] On 17 December of that year, Andorra adopted its own country code, +376.[4] This meant that all international calls to the Principality, including those from France and Spain, required the use of the +376 country code.[5]
