Tips

You can call Mexico from anywhere in the world. To do this, you only need to know the source code of your country and the Mexico access code. Here's how to do it.

Steps

Method 1 of 2: Part One: Basic Steps

1 Dial the outgoing code for your country. In order to indicate to the telephone service provider that the call you dialed should be directed to another country, you must first dial the specific country code from which the call originated. This allows the call to "get out" from its home country, as it were.
- Although this code may be the same in some countries, there is no single code that applies to all countries. See below for outgoing country codes.
- For example, the US outgoing code is "011". That is, in order to call Mexico from the United States, you must first dial "011".
- Example: 011-xx-xxx-xxx-xxxx
2 Dial "52", this is the Mexico access code. To dial an international phone number, you must indicate which country the call should go to by entering the access code for that country. Mexico's access code is "52".
- Each country has its own access code. This code is distinctive and unique for each country. The exceptions are countries that belong to the commonwealth of countries falling under a single access code. Mexico is not such a country, so it has a unique code.
- Example: 011-52-xxx-xxx-xxxx
3 Enter your mobile phone code if necessary. If you are trying to dial a mobile phone in Mexico, you must enter "1" for this ..
- Please note that you do not need to enter anything when dialing from a landline phone.
- Example: 011-52-1-xxx-xxx-xxxx (for dialing to a mobile phone in Mexico)
- Example: 011-52-xxx-xxx-xxxx (for dialing a landline phone in Mexico)
4 Enter the area code. Each region of Mexico has its own personal code. In order to call any phone number, you must enter the area code that covers that phone number. This applies to both landline and mobile phones.
