Region

Skype does not know the location where you are connected to the Internet, therefore you will always have to enter the country setting when calling landline phones and/or mobile phones via the Internet (SkypeOut). Your country code is preset for the United States (+1). Thus, a country code is only needed when calling someone in a country other than your own.

In some countries area codes are used, for instance when calling between states or regions. If you live in a country where such area codes are used, you can save your settings in Area code. Please note that you can only choose this function if the code you have saved in Country code applies to a country where area codes are in fact used.
