Country code
+506
Dialing out
00
Trunk prefix
none

Costa Rica has no area codes and no trunk prefix: eight digits reach any phone from anywhere in the country, and the same eight follow +506. The first digit names the network, with the state operator Kölbi on 8 and rivals on 6 and 7. The plan grew from six to eight digits in 2008, so ancient listings need padding. Dial 00 to call abroad.

Eight digits written xxxx xxxx; mobiles start with 6 (Liberty), 7 (Claro) or 8 (Kölbi), landlines with 2.
