How to Fax the UK From Germany

The way to send a fax from Germany to the United Kingdom with a machine is fairly straightforward, although sending a fax with a smartphone or email is much easier. You will need to dial the international dialing prefix for Germany first ( 00 ) followed by the country code for the United Kingdom ( 44 ) and then the number you are trying to fax.

Format your dialing to look like this:

00 - 44 - [fax number in the United Kingdom]


Dialing Codes and Things to Know

The United Kingdom includes England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. They all share the same country code / fax dialing procedures.

Is Your Machine Dialing Too Quickly?

Sometimes delayed connections in the phone switches require you to insert a pause after the international dialing prefix ( 00 ), the country code ( 44 ), and the number that you are dialing.


Speed Settings

Noise on the long-distance call between Germany and the UK may cause data loss during transmission. If this happens, try lowering the baud rate on your fax machine to 9600 baud.

Send a Fax From Germany to the UK Using Email

Internet faxing is the easiest way to send an international fax from country to country. Online fax services allow you to send your document as an attachment to an email. You can then send the email to a traditional fax machine in the UK, quickly and easily. Sending a fax electronically eliminates the need for a long-distance phone call and ensures delivery. You can even send a fax to the UK (or any other country) with your smartphone!

One popular online faxing service that works very well is iFax. You can send a fax for free or sign up for a free trial that can be canceled later if you aren't impressed with the service. Plus, a membership is less than calling the UK from Germany to send a fax!
