## How to read a Brazil phone number

A Brazil number is +55 followed by 11 digits. Knowing which of those digits mark a mobile is what tells you what the call will cost before you place it.

Country code +55 Area or operator prefix 1 Local number 1912345678

Inside Brazil, 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

9

Landline prefixes

2345

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.

## When to call Brazil

What the clock reads in Brazil when it is mid-morning, early afternoon and evening where you are. Highlighted cells fall between 9:00 and 21:00 local time at the other end.

## Other American destinations, cheapest first

Rates vary by more than a factor of ten inside a single region, because each one is set by what the operator at the far end charges to accept the call. Costa Rica is currently the cheapest place we publish a rate for near Brazil.

## Frequently asked questions

What is the country code for Brazil?

The country code for Brazil is +55. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).

What are the area codes for Brazil?

Brazil has 10 city area codes listed on this page, including São Paulo 11, Rio de Janeiro 21, Brasília 61. Dial the country code first, then the area code without its trunk prefix, then the local number. The table above gives the full dial string for every city.

What does a Brazil phone number look like?

A Brazil number is written as +55 11 9 1234-5678: the country code +55 followed by 11 digits. That total is fixed by the national numbering plan, so a number with one digit missing is a typo rather than a shorter valid number.

How can I tell if a Brazil number is a mobile?

By its leading digits. In Brazil, a national number of 11 digits beginning with 9 is a mobile. That still works after a number has been ported between operators, because mobile and fixed-line blocks are separate ranges and numbers do not move between them.

Do I need to drop the leading 0 when calling Brazil?

Yes. Brazil uses 0 as a trunk prefix for domestic calls. When dialing internationally, drop the leading 0 from the local number.

How much does it cost to call Brazil?

Telvio charges $0.14/min to Brazil landlines and $0.14/min to mobiles. Billing is per second with no connection fees, so you pay only for the seconds you talk.
