ie my T-mobile number 857-928-XXXX can be dialed as: 857928XXXX from other T-mobile phone. 1857928XXXX from any other US provider +1857928XXXX from europe 001857928XXXX from the most european countries (as regular phone can't dial "+" Czech republic number 235362XXX can be dialed as: 235362XXX from any phone in Czech republic (without any prefix) +420235362XXX internationally 011420235362XXX from US (011 international prefix, 420 country code) Some VoIP gateways require country code every time without any other prefix (ie Betamax) - in my case 420235362XXX Your examle reminds me more old czech (and possibly some european countries) behaviour: local calls - no prefix "long distance" - 0 followed by "area code" "international" - 00 followed by country code Some other prefixes like 81, 82 existed in past to direct trunk dial from one exchange to another (but more than 20yrs ago...)
