+502 Country Code
for Guatemala

Guatemala uses country calling code +502 and a closed eight-digit national plan. SIT defines only three broad geographic National Destination Codes for fixed service: 2 for the metropolitan zone, 6 for the suburban metropolitan zone and 7 for the interurban zone. These are leading digits of the full number, not separate dialling prefixes added to a local number.

Country Code vs. Area Code

+502 routes a call to Guatemala. A geographic area code then identifies a fixed-line numbering area or range. Do not create a duplicate global “502 area code” page for the same country-code intent.

Number length

National Number Format

Ordinary fixed and mobile national numbers contain 8 digits; geographic fixed numbers begin with broad NDC 2, 6 or 7, while current mobile numbers begin with 3, 4 or 5.

Guatemala does not publish a separate city area code for every department or municipality. The NDCs 2, 6 and 7 are broad one-digit fixed-line zones within a complete eight-digit number. In particular, 7 covers all interurban departments, so later digits must not be presented as verified department codes without an authoritative allocation record. Metropolitan and suburban coverage can also divide parts of municipalities in Guatemala Department.
