Early in 2014, a few of the bases on Okinawa changed their telephone policies, preventing people direct dialing from Japanese commercial phones to on-base DSN lines. Here is an updated list of instructions to call each military base on Okinawa. I’ve also included important military emergency numbers for quick reference.
To call a DSN from Off-Base
Substitute the following DSN numbers to direct dial from off-base including cell phones.
DSN 622-xxxx, dial 098-954-xxxx
DSN 622-xxxx, dial 098-954-xxxx
DSN 623-xxxx, dial 098-969-xxxx
DSN 632-xxxx, dial 098-962-xxxx
DSN 633-xxxx, dial 098-959-xxxx
DSN 634-xxxx, dial 098-961-xxxx
DSN 645-xxxx, dial 098-970-xxxx
DSN 646-xxxx, dial 098-971-xxxx
For those numbers without direct dial access, please use the operator numbers below.
