What are the MCC and MNC codes in Afghanistan?
Every mobile network in Afghanistan shares Mobile Country Code (MCC) 412 — the three-digit prefix that opens every PLMN broadcast by a Afghanistan SIM. The country's international dialling prefix is +93, which is distinct from the MCC: 412 identifies the country inside the network, while +93 routes voice calls. Under ISO 3166 Afghanistan is coded AF / AFG / 004.
