Germany number facts
| Country code | +49 |
|---|---|
| Mobile format | Mobile numbers start with 015, 016 or 017 (+49 15x, 16x, 17x). The Federal Network Agency reserves these ranges for mobile services only. |
| Example | +49 171 3920012 (The Bundesnetzagentur reserves 0171 39200 00–99 as "drama numbers".) |
| Main carriers | Telekom Deutschland, Vodafone, Telefónica Germany (O2), 1&1 Mobilfunk |
| Number portability | EU law (EECC article 106) lets numbers move between operators within one working day, so 0171 or 0176 no longer identify the network. |
| Prepaid SIM rule | Yes. Since July 1, 2017 prepaid SIMs are activated only after the provider verifies the buyer's name and address (now section 172 of the Telecommunications Act, TKG). |
| VoIP numbers | Yes. Location-independent 032 numbers are widely used for internet telephony, while the Bundesnetzagentur states that mobile numbers "may be used exclusively for mobile services". |
| Price per code | WhatsApp $1.35 · Telegram $2.16 · Google $0.45 |
| Payment | Crypto (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, TRX); top-up from $20 |
| Identity check | None for you: no ID, no selfie, no documents |
What should I know about German numbers?
Germany draws a strict line between ranges: the regulator says numbers for mobile services may be used for mobile services only. A +49 15x, 16x or 17x number is therefore a SIM-based line, and internet telephony uses 032 or local landline codes instead.
Every German prepaid SIM has been identity-checked at activation since July 2017. That check applies to the SIM holder; you do not upload any document to us. In October 2026 a German WhatsApp code cost $1.80 at SMSPool and Telegram $2.88.

Frequently asked questions
Are German 032 numbers mobile?
No. 032 numbers are national, location-independent numbers commonly used for internet telephony. Mobile numbers start with 015, 016 or 017.
Do I need a German ID to use a German number?
No. German law requires an identity check when a prepaid SIM is activated; that concerns the SIM holder. You order with an email and a password.
Is a non-VoIP number always accepted?
No. A non-VoIP number is classed as mobile in carrier databases, which most sign-up forms accept, but each service sets its own rules and can still refuse a number. If that happens, cancel the order and the price goes back to your balance.
Do I need to verify my identity?
No. RealSIM Numbers asks for no ID, no selfie and no documents: an email and a password open an account. The acceptable use policy still applies to every order.
