## Frequently asked questions

What is the area code for São Paulo?

The area code for São Paulo, Brazil is 11. Calling from outside Brazil, dial your exit code, then +55, then the area code without its trunk prefix, then the local number — written together as +55 11 followed by the subscriber number.

How do I call São Paulo from abroad?

From the United States or Canada, dial 011 + 55 + 11 + the local number. From most of Europe and from a mobile anywhere, replace the exit code with 00 or simply press and hold 0 to enter a plus sign, which works from any country without knowing its exit code.

Do I drop the 0 when calling São Paulo?

Yes. Brazil uses 0 as a trunk prefix for domestic calls, so São Paulo's code is written 11 locally and dialled as 11 from abroad. Keeping the trunk prefix in an international number is the single most common reason the call fails to connect.

How many digits is a São Paulo phone number?

A full Brazil number is 11 digits after the country code, area code included — for example +55 11 9 1234-5678. That length is fixed by the national numbering plan, so a number one digit short is a typo rather than a valid shorter number.

How much does it cost to call São Paulo?

Calling a São Paulo landline costs $0.14 a minute with Telvio and a mobile costs $0.14. Ten minutes to a landline is $1.40. Billing is per second with no connection fee, so a short call is charged for the seconds it used rather than rounded up to a whole minute.

## Call São Paulo with Telvio

From $0.14/min. Per-second billing, 1 free minute included.
