All phone numbers in Morocco are 9 digits in length (excluding the leading 0). Morocco uses a closed numbering plan, i.e. the prefix is not omitted for local calls. This is necessary because the same geographic area can be served by several prefixes. Casablanca, for instance, has 10 prefixes.
Landline phone numbers begin with the area code, then one digit for the operator code, then six digits for the primary telephone number. Format: (XXX Y ZZZZZZ) where: "xxx" denotes the area code. All area codes begin with the number 0. The operator code for fixed (landline) numbers is "y".
