What types of German numbers are there?

A German phone number is issued by a government agency, just like in the Netherlands. With us, that is the ACM (Authority for Consumers and Markets), in Germany the Bundesnetzagentur.

German 0800 numbers

Just like in the Netherlands, Germany also has 0800 numbers, numbers that are free to call. With a German 0800 phone number, you are locally accessible to your German customers and you immediately have a reliable image!

National German 032 numbers

In Germany, 032 numbers are used as non-region-specific business numbers. A 032 number is often chosen because these numbers are national numbers, just like the Dutch 085 numbers.

Calling these numbers costs just as much as calling a regular number for your German customers.

If you need a good German phone number, this 032 series is often preferred!

Local numbers

Besides national and free phone numbers in Germany, you can also register local numbers in all major cities in Germany at Belfabriek.

You do need a business address in this city itself. A virtual number in a city is not allowed by the Bundesnetzagentur and this is also checked. If you want to serve Germany from the Netherlands, we recommend that you take a national number.
