Step-by-step guides for calling Nicaragua
Frequently asked questions
Which country has the +505 country code?
+505 is the calling code of Nicaragua; no other country uses it.
Is +505 a country code or an area code?
+505 is a country code: it is dialed first to reach Nicaragua from another country. Area codes come after the country code and only pick a region inside the country. Don't confuse it with US area code 505 (Albuquerque (NM)): US area codes come after +1, so a number that starts with +505 is an international call, not a US number.
Is 00505 the same as +505?
Yes. +505, 00505 and 00 505 are the same code for Nicaragua: 00 is the exit code dialed from a landline in most countries, and + replaces it on a mobile. From the US and Canada the exit code is 011, so it becomes 011 505.
How do I call Nicaragua from abroad?
Dial the exit code of the country you are in, then 505, then the local number. From most of Europe and Latin America that is 00 505 8123 4567; from the US and Canada, 011 505 8123 4567. From a mobile phone, dial +505 8123 4567 from anywhere.
