Notes on Chile Dialing
Since 2017, Chile standardized its national numbering plan to **9-digit mobile and landline numbers**. Landlines typically begin with the area code followed by an 8-digit number (e.g., 2 2123 4567 in Santiago). Mobile numbers start with **9** and include the area code digit (e.g., 9 1234 5678). When calling from abroad, dial +56 followed by the full 9-digit number-no leading zero
