How to analyse a French phone number according to E.164

From the E.164 schema below, how should I understand a French phone number like +33712345678 or 0712345678 when calling from France ?

Which part is TC, CC, NSN, NDC and SN ?

Is the analyse below correct ?

(updated as per @Lewis Kelsey's answer)

  1. Public Line Prefix: none

  2. TC - International Prefix, Trunk Code**:

    • International Dialing Prefix: + (equivalent to 00 from France)
    • CC - Country Calling Code: 33
    • National Access Code: 0

  3. NSN:

    • NDC - National Destination Code: 07
    • SN - Subscriber's Number: 12345678 (Base Number)
Solution

  • Public Line Prefix not sure what this is, but it's not part of the number

    The International Dialing Prefix (IDD) or International access code is 00 if you are calling from france. + means add the International Dialing Prefix of the country you are calling from, which is 00

    Country code is 33

    National Access Code (aka. NDD prefix aka. the national trunk prefix): This is the 0 part of 07 i.e. it's when you make a national call and use 0 instead of 0033

    NDC - National Destination Code / Area Code / STD : 07, includes the NAC 0, which is replaced with the international prefix and country code if called from another country

    Subscriber's Number: 12345678, which comprises a base number and DID extension if it belongs to a business
