Country code Venezuela, +58 or 0058?

There are two spellings for the Venezuela area code, namely +58 and 0058. Which area code do you have to use? What is the difference between the two country codes for Venezuela and what are the different versions for?

The country code of Venezuela that starts with a “+” (i.e. +58) 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 Venezuela using the +58 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 area code Venezuela with leading zeros (0058) 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 0058

In fact, the 0058 variant applies to calls to Venezuela, especially in Europe. In other countries of the world, the international code 0058 will not work. Example: In the USA, international calls to Venezuela begin with 011. An international call here begins with the area code 01158.

Conclusion

For calls from UK to Venezuela you can always use the country code 0058. In other countries, the two leading zeros must be replaced by a different access code. The international dialing code (+58) for Venezuela works in all countries in the world. However, it is not supported in all networks and by all telephone devices.
