Several routes connect you to Brazil (+55) landlines, calling cards and modern VoIP services. Pick the one that fits your call volume and budget.
Dial your exit code (011 (North America) or 00 (most other countries)), enter +55, then the local Brazil number — dropping any leading 0. Brazil's 2-digit country code puts it in ITU Zone 5 of the global E.164 numbering plan.
Brazil uses a 2-digit country code (Zone 5). Check that the card lists +55 rates explicitly — mobile numbers in Brazil often carry a different per-minute charge than landlines. Factor in the America/Sao_Paulo time zone when planning the call.
Apps like Skype, WhatsApp and Viber, and business VoIP from TKOS are the cheapest route to Brazil (+55) — Americas routes over European and Atlantic fibre links — latency is typically under 100 ms on broadband.
The cost of calling Brazil varies depending on the method and service provider you choose. Compare landline, VoIP and calling-card routes side by side.

Press + on a mobile (hold the 0 key), or dial 00 from most countries / 011 from North America.
Dial +55. This identifies Brazil on the global telephone network.
Type the first part of the local number. Drop the leading 0 if there is one.
The remaining digits route the call to the specific line in Brasília or elsewhere.

TKOS provisions +55 DIDs and termination through direct carrier interconnects.
Whether you're reaching Brazil for business or family, three habits keep every conversation crystal clear and a clean route from TKOS handles the rest.
Brazil routes perform best with an HD-compatible headset — the G.722 wideband codec is supported on most VoIP paths to Brasília and makes voices noticeably clearer.
