How to call Jamaica from abroad
Jamaicans dial 011, not 00, to call abroad. Inside Jamaica all 10 digits must be dialled, even for a neighbour.
Mobile numbers: Mobiles have no prefix of their own: they use the same 876 and 658 area codes as landlines, followed by 7 digits. An example in international format: +1 876 xxx xxxx.
+1 is shared. 22 more places use it: American Samoa, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, Canada and others. The digits after the code tell them apart.
Jamaica area codes
Every Jamaica number, mobile or landline, starts with one of these area codes right after +1. They cover the whole country, not separate towns.
| Code | Area code | Dial from abroad |
|---|---|---|
| The main code | 876 | +1 876 ... |
| Added in 2018, same island | 658 | +1 658 ... |
Calling out of Jamaica. From a landline there, start with 011, then the other country's code and number. From a mobile, + works everywhere.
Time in Jamaica. Jamaica is on GMT-5 all year. Check the time before you call, especially for business numbers.
876 and 658 cover exactly the same area, so you cannot tell a town from the code. The Office of Utilities Regulation (OUR) says 658 numbers go out once 876 numbers run out, so 876 is still the one you will almost always see.
The last seven digits of a 658 number can match an 876 number, so the area code is part of the number and cannot be skipped.
Mandatory 10-digit dialling began on 31 March 2019. A call dialled with only 7 digits gets a recorded message asking you to redial.
Jamaica's 888 toll-free numbers are a Jamaica-only scheme outside the standard North American plan, so do not expect them to work from other countries.
Missed call from +1?
The US Federal Trade Commission warns about "one ring" scam calls from Caribbean area codes, and its list includes Jamaica's 876: a single missed call tempts you to call back and pay high per-minute charges.
