Calling Eritrea from Denmark

Rates, dialling instructions and the best time to call Eritrea from Denmark with eFon.

Many people in Denmark have family, friends and business partners in Eritrea, and a phone call is still the simplest way to stay close. eFon lets you call Eritrea mobiles and landlines from any phone in Denmark at low per-minute rates — no contract, no special plan.

Denmark's Eritrean community is relatively young and grew mainly after 2014; most live in the Copenhagen area, Aarhus, Odense and Aalborg.

How to dial Eritrea from Denmark

00 291 · local number

  1. From a landline in Denmark: dial the exit code 00, then the country code 291, then the local number without any leading zero.
  2. From a mobile: type +291 and the local number — the plus sign replaces the exit code on every mobile phone, wherever you are.
  3. With eFon: open the app, choose Eritrea, enter the number and call — the app adds the country code for you.

Examples: the mobile number +291 7 123 456 in Eritrea is dialled as 00 291 7 123 456 from a landline in Denmark (or +291 7 123 456 from a mobile); the Asmara landline +291 8 370 362 becomes 00 291 8 370 362.

Dear efon, the sound of your earpiece speaker is very weak, my phone is fine, no problem, I talk with other apps and it is fine, but with Efon it is very weak, please increase the volume. My phone is Samsung S25.One UI 8.5

The best on the market, worth every penny, using for years now. A tip for users, if the call has a delay, it's because of WiFi, use it through mobile data, nearly 0 delay.

Great app crystal clear , my cousin has a stage 4 cancer right now and I needed this to coordinate her final days , thanks for creating this. It does need few improvements. Subscription or adding credits could be more functional as you have to try so many times to add credit. It’s a few cliches that’s resolvable above all I will still give it five stars

Very useful app! I live abroad and my family is in a rural area with no internet. This app allows me to call them directly at a very low cost. It’s easy to use, reliable and the support team responds quickly. Highly recommended!

You don't need internet to call everywhere in the world, I love it because you can connect with your family regardless of whether they have a connection or not, what saved me is that it comes with a gift balance, thank you, very good app.
