I would like to get a complete list of Worldwide GSM Phone Area Prefixes, Example:

India: 981 (All Cell phones are prefixed with this) etc

Hi there,

International mobile phone prefixes consist of a three-digit country
code (MCC), followed by a two or three-digit network code (MNC).

I have found a number of GSM phone prefix lists for you. The first two
are the most complete:

Worldwide Mobile Operators and Network Codes
http://flog81.free.fr/networks.php

SMS
http://www.nilcom.fr/web/operateur-gb.htm


The next three aren't as good:

GSM Area

CHT
http://www.cht.com.tw/ServiceCat.php?Page=ServiceArea&CatID=589

Network Codes (text file)

Here in Australia, I know that the main mobile networks are:

01 Telstra 
02 Optus 
03 Vodafone 
06 Hutchison (aka Orange / 3 Network)
08 One.Tel

For most purposes, knowing the above is sufficient.


NumberingPlans.com
==================

None of the above lists are as complete as the data at NumberingPlans.com. 

For example, they list 14 extra, rarely used prefixes for Australia.
The data can be accessed one country at a time for free:
