Calling Mexico from the US (+52 Country Code)

Making international calls can be simple and straightforward if you follow the correct steps. If you need to call Mexico from the United States, you'll need to dial the country code for Mexico, which is 52. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

1. Ensure you have a phone service plan that includes international calling, or check your provider's international rates and add-ons.

2. Dial the exit code: Start by dialing the exit code for the United States, which is "011," or "0011," depending on your phone carrier.

3. Enter the country code: After the exit code, enter the country code for Mexico, which is "52."

4. Dial the Mexican phone number: Finally, dial the local Mexican phone number you wish to reach, including the area code if necessary.

For example, if you want to call a Mexican number with the country code 52, and the local number is 123-456-7890, you would dial: 011-52-123-456-7890.

Calling the United States & Other Countries from Mexico

If you are in Mexico and need to call someone in the United States or Other Country, you can easily do so by following these steps.

1. Dial the exit code: Start by dialing the exit code for Mexico, which is "00."

2. Enter the country code: After the exit code, enter the country code for the United States, which is "1."

3. Dial the US phone number: Finally, dial the local US phone number you wish to reach, including the area code if necessary.

For example, if you are in Mexico and want to call a US number with the country code 1, and the local number is 555-123-4567, you would dial: 00-1-555-123-4567.

Making International Calls on Cellphones

If you are using a cellphone to make international calls, you can simplify the process further:

1. Use the "+" symbol: On most cellphones, you can simply use the "+" symbol instead of the exit code. For example, to call Mexico from the US, dial "+52," and to call the United States from Mexico, dial "+1" for both.

2. Dial the full international number: Enter the country code and the local phone number, including the area code if needed.

Using the "+" symbol on your cellphone takes care of the exit code, making it even more convenient for international calls.
