Phone number format in Czechia
A mobile number in Czechia has 9 digits after +420 and no leading 0, so 601 123 456 becomes +420 601 123 456 in international format. With Czechia as the default country you can paste the local form.
Alphabet and message length
Texts in Czech stay at 160 characters per segment until they use č, ď, ě, ň, ř, š, ť, ů and ž. Those letters are not in GSM-7, so the message becomes Unicode with 70 characters per segment (67 per part). Short reminders written without them stay in one segment, and the composer names each letter that changed the count.
Main languages: Czech.
