Country code Panama, +507 or 00507?

There are two spellings for the Panama area code, namely +507 and 00507. Which area code do you have to use? What is the difference between the two country codes for Panama and what are the different versions for?

The country code of Panama that starts with a “+” (i.e. +507) is the so-called international code (international spelling). It is primarily used in the mobile communications sector. Most cell phones can make an international call to Panama using the +507 area code. This applies to almost every country in the world.

Unfortunately, there are phones (especially older models) that do not support the international spelling. The Panama area code with leading zeros (00507) is then used on these phones. The leading zeros are also referred to as the so-called traffic elimination number. When you call, they indicate that it is an international call.

Problem: Access code and area code 00507

In fact, the 00507 variant applies to calls to Panama, especially in Europe. In other countries of the world, the international code 00507 will not work. Example: In the USA, international calls to Panama begin with 011. An international call here begins with the area code 011507.

Conclusion

For calls from UK to Panama you can always use the country code 00507. In other countries, the two leading zeros must be replaced by a different access code. The international variant (+507) of the country code Panama works in all countries in the world. However, it is not supported in all networks and by all telephone devices.
