  • Verify the number length: Numbers in Cuba have 8 digits for mobiles and 6 to 10 for landlines after +53. If your call does not connect, check that no digit is missing or doubled.
  • Save contacts in international format: Always store phone numbers with the full +53 prefix so they work from any country.
