Sweden number format (+46)

Swedish mobile numbers start with 07 when written inside the country, for example 07X-XXX XX XX (10 digits with the trunk 0). Common mobile prefixes are 070, 072, 073, 076 and 079. Landlines use area codes such as 08 for Stockholm, and SMS codes go to mobiles, so a code number will start with 7 after +46. When an app asks for your number:

• Pick Sweden (+46) in the country list, or type +46 yourself.
• Drop the leading 0, so 07X-XXX XX XX becomes +46 7X XXX XX XX (9 digits after +46).
• If you see the number written as 0046, replace 0046 with +46.
• A wrong format is one of the most common reasons a code never arrives.

• Some services send codes from short codes or alphanumeric sender names that not every route receives; try another operator or a fresh number.
