How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Venezuela

Venezuela uses country calling code +58. Domestically, Venezuelan numbers are usually written with a trunk prefix 0, followed by a 3-digit area code (for landlines) or a 3-digit mobile code (for mobiles), and then a 7-digit subscriber number. That’s why you’ll commonly see Caracas landlines written like 0212 XXX XXXX, and mobile numbers written like 0414 XXX XXXX.

When calling Venezuela from abroad, you dial your international exit code (or +), then 58, then the number without the leading 0. For example, 0212 XXX XXXX → +58 212 XXX XXXX (Caracas landline), and 0414 XXX XXXX → +58 414 XXX XXXX (mobile). Within Venezuela, calls inside the same area may be dialed as just the 7-digit local number, but the most reliable habit—especially from mobiles or when you’re unsure—is to dial the full national format 0 + area/mobile code + 7 digits. Venezuela’s international dialing prefix (calling out from Venezuela) is commonly 00.

What are the city and area codes in Venezuela

Dialing tip: If you see a landline written locally as 0 + area code (e.g., 0212), that leading 0 is for domestic dialing only. Internationally, drop the 0 and dial +58 (e.g., 0212… → +58 212…).
