Notes on Panama Dialing
Panama uses a simple **8-digit national numbering plan** with **no area codes in the traditional sense**. Historically, geographic prefixes were used (e.g., "2" for Panama City, "7" for David), but since 2010, Panama has operated under a **closed dialing plan**-all numbers are 8 digits and dialed in full, even locally.
When calling from abroad, dial +507 followed directly by the full 8-digit number-do not add a leading zero or separate area code.
Mobile numbers typically start with 6 (e.g., 6123 4567), while landlines often begin with 2-9 depending on the region.
