How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Ecuador

Ecuador uses country code +593. From abroad, dial your exit code → 593 → area code or mobile code → subscriber number. From inside Ecuador:

Landlines: local calls within the same area code use 7 digits; to another area code, dial 0 + area code + 7 digits (e.g., 02 for Quito, 04 for Guayaquil).

Mobiles: dial 09… domestically; from abroad, use +593 9…. Mobile numbers use 9x prefixes (92–99) after Ecuador added 9 to mobile numbers in a national update. International calls from Ecuador use 00.

Emergency numbers (Ecuador):

911 — unified police / fire / ambulance, free from any phone.

1800-DELITO (335-486) — crime reporting / Tourist Police contact noted in travel advisories.
