How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Bahamas
The Bahamas is part of the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) and uses area code 242 for the entire country. From the U.S. or Canada, dial 1 242 + the 7-digit number. From outside the NANP, dial your country’s exit code → 1 → 242 → the 7-digit number. Within the Bahamas, local calls are 7 digits; domestic long-distance is 1 242 NXX-XXXX; international calls placed from the Bahamas use the 011 exit code. There’s no trunk “0.” 
Mobiles vs landlines: In NANP territories, mobiles and fixed lines share the same area code. In the Bahamas both use +1 242, and the first three digits after 242 (the NXX prefix) indicate the block assignment. Typical international formats: +1 242 322-XXXX (Nassau fixed), +1 242 357-XXXX (BTC mobile), +1 242 81X-XXXX (ALIV mobile).
