Dialing Tips

  • No 011 needed: Puerto Rico shares country code +1 with the US, so dial 1 + area code + number. Check your plan: calls to +1 Caribbean countries are often billed as international.
  • Use the + notation: From a US mobile phone, use +1 instead of 1.
  • Verify the number length: Numbers in Puerto Rico have 10 digits after +1. 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 +1 prefix so they work from any country.
