Sweden's prefix for dialing out is 00, but dialing in is 46. The problem i encountered was that when my app get's a number that is from Hong Kong (852) 5555 5555 it adds (00) to the number, thus enabling me to redial the number. My app get's the number 0085255555555 and determinds that 00 must be the dial out, and 852 is dial in for Hong Kong. But if i instead get a number from (52) 5555 5555 55 and i live in Indonesia i would append 008 in the begining sense in Indonesia dial out can be 008. The number would then look like 008525555555555, how to determin that 008 is the dial out, and 52 is country code ( for Mexico), and not dial out is 00 and country code is 852 ?
