Dialing prefixes

The following dialing prefixes are available for use from within Mexico:

Prefix Use Format Digits after prefix
00 International direct dialing 00 + country code + phone number -
01 Domestic direct dialing 01 + area code + phone number 10
02 Domestic operator dialing 02 + area code + phone number 10
09 International operator dialing 09 + country code + phone number -
044 Local cell phone 044 + area code + phone number 10

It is important to note that an attempt to reach a cell phone will fail if the correct dialing prefixes (044 or 045) are not used. However, when calling from a cell phone, you must use the regular prefixes.

Dialing a cell phone in Mexico from abroad

To reach a mobile phone from outside Mexico a 1 must be added before the area code:

    +52 + 1 + area code + phone number
