The number
Drop the 0
Colombia renumbered to ten digits in 2022. A mobile starts 3, a landline starts 60, and both are dialled straight after +57. Any instruction featuring 03, 05, 07 or a carrier code is describing domestic long distance and does not apply from abroad.

02When
When to call
Colombia is on UTC-5 all year with no daylight saving, so it matches New York in winter and is an hour behind it in summer. It is the easiest corridor on this list for timing.
Family calls and property, and a corridor whose numbering changed recently enough that most printed material is out of date.
03Cost
What a minute costs
Which of those applies is read off the digits you type, so you are never asked to guess whether a Colombia number is a landline or a mobile. Services that ask you to pick quote one of these prices and are wrong whenever the guess is.
Per minute in USD from a US caller ID, part of a minute counting as a full one. Rates last changed 18 August 2026. Everything we publish for Colombia, or check one number.

05Questions
Common questions
How do I call Colombia from the US?
Dial 011, then 57, then the Colombia number. Colombia renumbered to ten digits in 2022. A mobile starts 3, a landline starts 60, and both are dialled straight after +57. Any instruction featuring 03, 05, 07 or a carrier code is describing domestic long distance and does not apply from abroad. From a browser on Airlophone there is no exit code at all: you type the number starting +57 and the price for that exact number appears before it dials.
What is the country code for Colombia?
+57. From the US you dial 011 first to leave the country, so the full string begins 011 57. From the UK and most of Europe the exit code is 00 instead, and from Australia it is 0011.
How much does it cost to call Colombia?
On Airlophone it starts at $0.09 a minute, billed per minute with part of a minute counting as a full one. The exact price depends on the band: landline $0.22, mobile $0.09 per minute. The band is read from the digits of the number itself, so you are never asked to guess whether a number is a landline or a mobile. Calling the same number on a mobile carrier's international direct dial or while roaming is charged separately by that carrier and is normally a great deal more.
What is the best time to call Colombia from the US?
Colombia is on UTC-5 all year with no daylight saving, so it matches New York in winter and is an hour behind it in summer. It is the easiest corridor on this list for timing.
Do I need an app or a SIM card?
No. Airlophone runs in a browser tab, so there is nothing to install and no SIM to buy, and it works the same on a laptop you have borrowed. The person you call needs nothing either: the call arrives on the ordinary phone network, so their phone rings whether it is a landline or a mobile and whether or not they have internet.
