Change in numbering system
From 1 April 2008 The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) announced the successful migration of cellular mobile subscriber numbers from 7 to 8 digits. The dialing codes of all mobile companies were changed from 4 digits to 3 digits.As part of new Mobile Numbering Plan, all mobile numbers in the country would consist of 8 digits by moving the last digit of the dialing code into subscriber number such that the dialing code would be reduced to 3 digits (i.e. 0333-51xxxxx would now be 033-351xxxxx).
Numbers of Mobilink, Warid, Ufone and Telenor will remain the same 11 digits as before. For Paktel - now Zong (China Mobile), Instaphone and SCOM (AJK& Northern Areas), in addition to aforementioned shifting of subscriber numbers, digits of their dialing code would also change (i.e. 0314-51xxxxx will be 031-451xxxxx, 0320-51xxxxx will be 036-451xxxxx and 0335-51xxxxx will be 035-551xxxxx).
These changes become effective from April 1, 2008. Until June 30, 2008 all old and new numbers could be dialed. From 1 July 2008 onwards only new numbers will be valid.
