How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Panama

Panama’s country calling code is +507, and Panama does not use city area codes in the way many countries do. The key practical difference is number length: landlines are usually 7 digits, while mobile numbers are 8 digits and start with 6. There’s no national trunk “0” to add or drop, so within Panama you typically dial the number exactly as written. From abroad, dial your international exit code (or +), then 507, then the full local number (for example: +507 2XX XXXX for a landline or +507 6XXX XXXX for a mobile).

If you’re calling Panama from the US/Canada on a traditional carrier, you’d typically dial 011 507 followed by the number. For contact storage (and for WhatsApp/SMS verification), save numbers in E.164 format as +507 plus the full number—this avoids confusion between 7-digit landlines and 8-digit mobile numbers and keeps dialing consistent when you travel.

What are the emergency numbers in Panama

Call 911 for emergency services (police, fire, ambulance). Panama also commonly lists 103 (ambulance/fire) and 104 (police).

What are the city and area codes in Panama

Dialing tip: Panama has no separate “area code” to add or remove—these are simply leading digits inside the 7-digit landline number. Locally you dial all 7 digits; internationally you dial +507 plus the same 7 digits (e.g., +507 2XX XXXX).

Panama City / Panamá Oeste (many landlines)	2	+507 2XX XXXX

Which mobile prefixes do mobile operators use in Panama

Dialing tip: Panama has number portability, so you generally can’t identify the current operator from the number alone. For dialing and messaging, just use +507 6XXX XXXX (or locally, 6XXX XXXX).

Mobile Operator	Dialing Prefixes
Más Móvil (+móvil / Cable & Wireless Panamá)	6XXX XXXX (all Panama mobile numbers use 8 digits starting with 6)
Tigo Panamá	6XXX XXXX (all Panama mobile numbers use 8 digits starting with 6)
