Liechtenstein Area Code

+423 is the dialing code for Liechtenstein.

Squeezed between Switzerland and Austria in the Alps lies the little principality of Liechtenstein. The position as a financial center and tax haven has made it one of the world’s richest countries in terms of per capita. However, in recent years, following strong pressure from the outside world, banking secrecy has been eased. Unlike other European monarchs, the prince has great power. He can appoint and dismiss the government himself and veto legislative proposals.
