According to MSDN [1], the plus symbol in the MSISDN signifies a
fully-qualified
international number:

> On an Short Message Service (SMS) bearer, the Wireless Datagram Protocol (WDP)
> layer treats all MSISDN addresses as an unknown type. However, if the first
> character in the MSISDN address is the plus sign (+), the WDP layer strips this
> character and treats the MSISDN address as an international number. Fully
> qualified international numbers are recommended to ensure the best
> interoperability when roaming from one mobile operator to another.
