How do you dial a cell phone in Colombia?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Mobile company codes in Colombia are three digits, beginning with a 3, followed by a 7-digit subscriber number.

Calling from a landline within Colombia, dial 03, followed by the mobile code and subscriber number; for example, 03-3xx-123-4567.

Calling on a mobile from anywhere in the world, dial +57 (including the plus symbol) followed by the mobile code and subscriber number.

Calling on a landline from outside Colombia, dial your international access prefix (depends on YOUR location), then 57, the mobile code, and subscriber number. For example, if your international access prefix is 00 (the most commonly used prefix), then you would dial 00-57-3xx-123-4567.
