Jamaica Country Code

Jamaica’s phone code is the telephone country code that is used for phone communications when a call is placed from outside of the country.

Jamaica’s Country Code is +1

Jamaica’s country code is +1. The country code is necessary only when dialing a phone number to make a telephone call from another country. International callers who wish to dial a telephone number in Jamaica should dial Jamaica’s telephone country code (+1) before the national telephone number preceded by area code.

All national phone numbers in Jamaica are ten digits long – aaa bbb bbbb, with aaa being the area code followed by the local phone number. Follow these easy steps to dial a phone number in Jamaica using the country code:

Step 1. Enter your country’s exit code on your phone. If you are calling from Europe please enter the 00 (or “+” sign if calling from a mobile device). If you are calling from USA or Canada no exit code are needed.

Step 2. Dial 1, Jamaica’s country code.

Step 3. Then enter Jamaica’s area code.

Step 4. Right after the area code, dial the national phone number you wish to call in Jamaica.

Here is an example: 

When calling from Europe: 00 1 aaa bbb bbbb (or +1 aaa bbb bbbb from a mobile device)
When calling from the United States: 1 aaa bbb bbbb

Jamaica’s area codes 876 and 658 are three digit long codes that are used for long-distance calling inside the country.

If you wish to dial a phone number with these area codes from outside Jamaica, you would have to dial first the exit code, then Jamaica’s country code 1. 

For example, if you want to dial a phone number in Kingston, this would be an example of a phone number: +1 876 bbb bbbb or 001 876 bbb bbbb, and 1 876 bbb bbbb if calling from the United States.

Jamaica’s mobile phone numbers are operated by the two largest local mobile phone companies -Digitel and Flow.

The mobile phone code in Jamaica is three digit long: 876. When dialing a mobile phone number from outside of the country, first you need to dial the exit code (for example, “011” or “+” sign if calling from the United States), then Jamaica’s country code “1”, plus the 10 digit phone number including mobile code.

For example, enter 011 1 876 bbb bbbb or 1 876 bbb bbbb if calling from the United States.
