Morse Code Numbers: 0 to 9 with Audio and Number Chart
View all Morse code numbers from 0 to 9, click any digit to hear its signal, test common number strings, and save a clean number chart for reference.
..--- ----- ..--- -....The digits move from five dots at 5 toward five dashes at 0. This makes the 0–9 set easier to recognize as a group.

International Morse Code numbers use five signal elements per digit. Each dot is a short signal and each dash is three times as long as a dot.
Morse Code Numbers from 0 to 9
Morse code numbers use fixed five-signal patterns for the digits 0 through 9. Each digit combines dots and dashes, making the number set one of the easiest parts of International Morse Code to learn as a group.

Every digit uses exactly five Morse signal elements.
| Number | Morse Code | Pattern |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | ----- | 5 dashes |
| 1 | .---- | 1 dot + 4 dashes |
| 2 | ..--- | 2 dots + 3 dashes |
| 3 | ...-- | 3 dots + 2 dashes |

How Morse Code Numbers Work
The 0–9 set follows a clear progression instead of ten unrelated codes.
Start with dots on the left and fill the remaining positions with dashes.
.---- → ..--- → ...-- → ....- → .....Start adding dashes from the left while the remaining positions stay dots.
-.... → --... → ---.. → ----. → -----Every Morse Number Uses Five Signals
Unlike letters, which use different pattern lengths, every International Morse Code digit uses exactly five dots or dashes.
That fixed length makes number patterns easy to compare visually and by sound.
How to Write Multi-Digit Numbers in Morse Code
Convert each digit separately and keep a normal character gap between the digit patterns.
..--- ----- ..--- -....----. .---- .----.---- ..--- ...-- ....- .....----- ----- --...A multi-digit number is not assigned a new Morse pattern as a whole. Each digit keeps its own five-element code.
How to Read Numbers in Morse Code
First identify the five-element pattern, then count where the dots change to dashes or the dashes change to dots.
All Dots
.....
5Five is the only digit made from five dots.
All Dashes
-----
0Zero is the only digit made from five dashes.
Dots Then Dashes
...--
3Three leading dots means the digit is 3.
Dashes Then Dots
---..
8Three leading dashes means the digit is 8.
Hear and Practice Morse Code Digits
Reading a chart helps with lookup, but listening helps you recognize the five-signal pattern without counting symbols on screen.
Listen to 1 Through 5
Notice how one more dot replaces a dash as the digits increase.
Listen to 6 Through 0
Notice how dashes build from the left while dots disappear.
Practice Number Strings
Use years, dates, or short digit sequences instead of isolated numbers.
Increase the Speed Slowly
Start at a comfortable WPM, then raise the playback speed as recognition improves.
Use the trainer when you are ready to practice beyond this 0–9 reference.
Morse Code Number Timing
Number patterns use the same timing rules as letters in International Morse Code.
ITU-R Recommendation M.1677-1 defines a dash as three times the duration of a dot, with one-dot spacing between signal elements of the same character, three-dot spacing between characters, and seven-dot spacing between words.

How many signals are in a Morse code number?
Every digit from 0 through 9 uses exactly five dots or dashes in International Morse Code.
What is 0 in Morse code?
Zero is -----, which is five dashes.
What is 5 in Morse code?
Five is ....., which is five dots.
