What are the MCC and MNC codes in Hong Kong?
Every mobile network in Hong Kong shares Mobile Country Code (MCC) 454 — the three-digit prefix that opens every PLMN broadcast by a Hong Kong SIM. The country's international dialling prefix is +852, which is distinct from the MCC: 454 identifies the country inside the network, while +852 routes voice calls. Under ISO 3166 Hong Kong is coded HK / HKG / 344. This page lists 30 mobile networks across 33 PLMN codes operating in Hong Kong, with each network's MNC, full PLMN, operator, status and market share.
By reported market reach, the largest networks in Hong Kong are CSL Limited (28.5%), CSL Limited (28.5%), 3 (25.7%).
