Phone numbers are one of the few standards on Calémere that have been adopted planetwide and are not divided in Eastern or Western (unlike e.g. longitude or calendar and time systems).

The international calling code of the Inquisition is '''+87''' (''+864'' for the Lalla Kēhamyutia) — this is the same in all of the country, including the Kāyīchah islands which are geographically in Védren, despite +8x being the prefixes for Márusúturon<ref>+8x only includes countries in Márusúturon, but many countries of Wírdaryȁngdé use +2x (as parts of Evandor also do), and almost all Dabuke countries use +3x (as Védren)</ref>. Landline numbers typically begin with an area code, which is a zero plus more digits - from one to four. The nine most basic area codes (00 is reserved for a few governmental numbers) are given to nine large metropolitan areas in various parts of the country: 01 is Līlta, 02 is Līlasuṃghāṇa, 03 is Cami, 04 is Ajāƾilbādhi, 05 is Līlikanāna, 06 is Līṭhalyinām, 07 is Ilēnimarta, 08 is Naiṣambella, and 09 is Mālim (the latter is not as populated as the others, but is the largest metro area in the North and West of the Inquisition).

The rest of the number, whether landline or mobile, is made of a minimum of six digits and up to ten.
