| Telephone numbers in
Prague are being digitised and all numbers will ultimately have
eight digits. Many have already changed to eight digits, although
many seven-digit telephone numbers may still work. However, visitors
finding that a seven-digit number doesn’t work can try adding
a ‘2’ at the beginning of the number. For example, if
(02) 123 4567 didn’t work, (02) 2123 4567 might. |
