Example: 00357 + 8-digit number.
00 or +? Either works

The Cyprus country code is +357. When dialling from a UK phone, replace the + with 00357 instead.
Do I dial 00 or + to call Cyprus from the UK?
Either works on most modern phones — typing "+" (hold 0 on most keypads) and the country code is the international standard and works automatically. The 00 prefix is the UK-specific way of dialling out internationally and does exactly the same thing.
Does this work for mobiles as well as landlines?
Cyprus has no area codes — dial 00357 + the full 8-digit number directly.
Is there a free way to call Cyprus that doesn't need a dialling code at all?
Yes — WhatsApp, FaceTime and similar apps call over data instead of the phone network, so there's no country code to dial at all. They're free if the person you're calling also has internet, but aren't a substitute for reaching a landline or someone without a smartphone.
