How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Peru
Peru’s country calling code is +51. Peruvian mobile numbers are 9 digits and always start with 9 (formatted like 9XX XXX XXX), and thanks to Peru’s nationwide “mobile virtual area,” mobiles are treated as non-geographic—you don’t add a city code when calling a Peruvian mobile, even from abroad. For landlines, Peru uses geographic area codes: Lima & Callao use area code 1, while most other regions use 2-digit area codes. Peru also uses a trunk prefix 0 for domestic long-distance landline dialing (for example, calling a landline in another region is typically 0 + area code + local number). 
To call Peru from abroad, dial your international exit code (or press +), then 51, then:
- Landline: +51 + area code + local number (Lima/Callao landlines typically have 7-digit local numbers; most other areas have 6-digit local numbers).
- Mobile: +51 9XX XXX XXX (no area code, and no leading 0).
Inside Peru, mobiles are usually dialed as the full 9-digit number, while landlines may be dialed locally without the area code within the same area, but use 0 + area code + number when calling a different area.
