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

Portugal’s Country Code is +351

Portugal’s country code is +351. 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 Portugal should dial Portugal’s telephone country code (+351) before the national telephone number preceded by area code.

All national phone numbers in Portugal are nine digits long – 2aa bbb bbb, with 2aa being the area code followed by the local phone number. Follow these easy steps to dial a phone number in Portugal 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) or 011 if calling from the United States. American callers use the “011” exit code for all international call, including Portugal.

Step 2. Dial 351, Portugal’s country code.

Step 3. Then enter Portugal’s area code.

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

Here is an example: 

When calling from Europe: 00 351 aaa bbb bbb (or +351 aaa bbb bbb from a mobile device)
When calling from the United States: 011 351 aaa bbb bbb

Portugal’s area codes are two-three digit long codes that are used for long-distance calling inside the country. Here are some Portugal’s area codes:

If you wish to dial a phone number with these area codes from outside Portugal, you would have to dial first the exit code, then Portugal’s country code 351. 

For example, if you want to dial a phone number in Madeira, this would be an example of a phone number: +351 291 bbb bbb or 00351 291 bbb bbb, and 011 351 291 bbb bbb if calling from the United States.

Portugal’s mobile phone numbers are operated by the three largest local mobile phone companies -Vodafone Portugal, TMN/MEO and Optimus.

The mobile phone codes in Portugal are two digit long: 91 (Vodafone Portuga), 90, 92 or 96 (TMN/MEO) or 93 (Optimus). 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 Portugal’s country code “351”, plus the 9 digit phone number including mobile code.

For example, enter 011 351 91 bbb bbbb or +351 91 bbb bbbb if calling from the United States.
