Title
Pages in the Telephone Directory Intended for Foreign Visitors

International Telecommunication Union/ITU Telcommunication Sector

Publication Date:
Jan 1, 1993

Scope:

General considerations

The number of people travelling abroad on business, for tourism or for any other reason is steadily increasing; in general such persons move about a great deal and thus have to contend with the problems this involves.

To satisfy their needs, foreign visitors have to make frequent use of the telephone; consequently Administrations strive to provide them with the essential instructions on how to use the telephone service for domestic and international calls.

In the interest of both users and Administrations, clear and easily understandable official information should be available wherever the telephone service may be used.

The telephone directory is the main official vehicle for the circulation of correct, up-to-date information on the use of the telephone.

To facilitate consultation of the General Information pages in the telephone directory by foreign visitors, one needs to include one or more pages in one or more languages to assist them during the consultation process.

Administrations should therefore ensure, if there is a need, that there are pages in the telephone directory specifically intended for foreign visitors and that they are standardized on the basis of the following basic provisions.
