Guatemala country dialling codes

If you are currently travelling abroad and wish to call home or intend on making international telephone calls to Guatemala, follow our simple step-by-step guide on how to make calls to Guatemala from outside of the country:

Country Code: Begin by dialling the international dialling code to exit your country and enter the international calling network. The international dialling code for most countries is “00” or “+”. You can also use the country-specific international access code if it differs from “00” or “+”.

Guatemala Country Code: After the international dialling code, you’ll need to enter the country code for Guatemala, which is “+502”

Area Code: The country has a unified area dialling code. The area dialing code for Guatemala is +502. This code is used for all towns and settlements throughout the country.

As a result, when making calls to any town or location within Guatemala, you will start with the country dialing code for Guatemala (+502), followed by the relevant local phone number. There are no separate area codes within Guatemala.

Local Number: After entering the country code, dial the local phone number of the person or business you want to reach in Guatemala.

Call Button: Finally, press the call button on your phone or wait for the call to connect if you’re using a landline.

For example, if you were calling a local number within Guatemala, you would dial it as follows:

• International dialling code: “00” or “+”
• Guatemala country code: “+502”
• Local phone number: XXX XXXX (replace with the actual number)
• So, if the local number is 123 4567, you would dial: +502 123 4567

Remember to consider the time zone difference when making international calls, so you don’t call at inconvenient hours. Additionally, be aware of any international calling rates that may apply, as these can vary depending on your service provider and the specific calling plan you have.

Always double-check the dialling codes and numbers before placing an international call to ensure that you connect successfully with your desired contact in Guatemala.
