      "question": "How many digits does a phone number in Egypt have?",

    },
    {
      "question": "What is the country code for Egypt?",
      "answer": "+20. From abroad, dial your own exit code, then 20, then the national number without its trunk prefix 0. From inside Egypt, the exit code for international calls is 00."
    },
    {
      "question": "Which prefixes are mobile numbers in Egypt?",
      "answer": "Mobile numbers start with 010, 011, 012 or 015 in national form; the mobile regular expression on this page gives the exact ranges (example: 010 01234567). The carrier table shows which prefix blocks were allocated to which operator."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can a mobile number in Egypt be ported to another carrier?",
      "answer": "Yes. Egypt has mobile number portability, so a prefix tells you the carrier a number was originally allocated to, not necessarily the one serving it today. Only a live carrier lookup (an HLR or MNP query) answers that."
