Number details

What to check before using the 56 country code

Country codes are only one part of an international phone number. Exit codes, area codes, mobile prefixes, and local numbering rules can change how the final number should be dialed.

Exit code or plus format

On a mobile phone, the plus sign usually replaces exit codes such as 00 or 011. From a landline, use the international access code for the country you are calling from, then 56.

Country calling code, dial code, or prefix

People may call 56 the Chile country code, country calling code, phone code, dial code, or international prefix. In each case, use +56 before the rest of the Chile number.

Mobile phone or landline

After +56, the next digits may be an area code, mobile prefix, service prefix, or local number. Check whether you are calling a mobile phone or landline because rates can differ.

Chile area code searches

Chile area code searches usually need modern +56 formatting. Chile now uses 9-digit national numbers, so save the full number after +56 rather than adding a separate old geographic area code.

Chile mobile numbers
