Ways to dial

Various methods to call Colombia

Several routes connect you to Colombia (+57) landlines, calling cards and modern VoIP services. Pick the one that fits your call volume and budget.

01

Calling Colombia from a landline or mobile

Dial your exit code (011 (North America) or 00 (most other countries)), enter +57, then the local Colombia number — dropping any leading 0. Colombia's 2-digit country code puts it in ITU Zone 5 of the global E.164 numbering plan.

See dialing steps→Classic
02

International calling cards for Colombia

Colombia uses a 2-digit country code (Zone 5). Check that the card lists +57 rates explicitly — mobile numbers in Colombia often carry a different per-minute charge than landlines. Factor in the America/Bogota time zone when planning the call.

Tips for clear & uninterrupted calls

Whether you're reaching Colombia for business or family, three habits keep every conversation crystal clear and a clean route from TKOS handles the rest.

  • 01

    HD audio for Colombia calls

    Colombia routes perform best with an HD-compatible headset — the G.722 wideband codec is supported on most VoIP paths to Bogotá and makes voices noticeably clearer.

  • 02

    Connection quality to Colombia

    Intra-Americas routes to Colombia stay under 80ms — even Wi-Fi is usually sufficient, but a wired connection removes the last variable during long back-to-back calls.

  • 03

    Best time to call Bogotá

    Schedule Colombia calls during Bogotá business hours — 09:00–17:00 America/Bogota — your contact will be at their desk in a quiet space rather than taking the call on the move.

Decision guide

Choosing the right service for calling Colombia

When selecting an international calling service for Colombia, four factors separate the durable providers from the noise. Look for a proven track record on each.

Coverage

Confirm direct in-country termination to Bogotá, not multi-hop transit routing.

Reliability

Require redundant interconnects and a clear automatic-failover SLA for Colombia routes.

Customer support

Confirm coverage for America/Bogota hours — a Bogotá route issue at 09:00 needs a human response, not a next-day ticket.

Transparent pricing

Zone 5 rates vary per city — request a full rate deck covering Bogotá and your key Colombia regions.

FAQ

Questions about calling Colombia, answered.

Everything a business or traveller needs to know before dialling Colombia (+57). Can't find an answer? Our team is one click away.

Q1.What is the country code for Colombia?
Colombia's international calling code is +57. Dial it immediately after your exit prefix and before the local subscriber number whenever calling from outside Colombia.
Q2.What is the + sign for when dialling Colombia?
The + replaces your local international exit code. When you call Colombia using +57, your carrier automatically substitutes the correct exit prefix (00 in Europe, 011 in North America, 0011 in Australia) before the call goes out.
Q3.What does +57 stand for?
+57 is the ITU-assigned international dialling prefix for Colombia. The leading 5 identifies it as a Zone 5 country in the global E.164 numbering plan, which covers Americas.
Q4.How do I call a mobile number in Colombia?
Dial + 57 followed by the mobile number — there is no leading 0 when calling internationally. Note that calling a Colombia mobile from abroad may cost more per minute than calling a landline, depending on your plan.
Q5.What VoIP service is best for calling Colombia?
For business calls, TKOS routes Colombia (+57) traffic through direct carrier interconnects in Americas, delivering HD voice and consistent quality. Consumer options like Skype, WhatsApp, and Google Voice work for casual calls.
