    },
    {
      "question": "What is the country code for Kenya?",
      "answer": "+254. From abroad, dial your own exit code, then 254, then the national number without its trunk prefix 0. From inside Kenya, the exit code for international calls is 000."
    },
    {
      "question": "Which prefixes are mobile numbers in Kenya?",
      "answer": "Mobile numbers start with 01 or 07 in national form; the mobile regular expression on this page gives the exact ranges (example: 0712 123456). The carrier table shows which prefix blocks were allocated to which operator."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can a mobile number in Kenya be ported to another carrier?",
      "answer": "Yes. Kenya 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."
