How to read a Argentina phone number
A Argentina number is +54 followed by 10 digits. Knowing which of those digits mark a mobile is what tells you what the call will cost before you place it.
Inside Argentina, numbers are dialled with a leading 0. Drop it when calling from abroad — keeping it is the single most common reason an international call fails.
Mobile prefixes
Landline prefixes
Prefix ranges still identify a line as mobile or fixed even where a number has been ported between operators, because the mobile and fixed blocks are separate and numbers do not move between them. Operator identification from a prefix, by contrast, stopped being reliable once portability arrived.

What does a Argentina phone number look like?
