The history behind Peruvian phone numbers

• Introduction of the telephone: The telephone was first introduced in Peru in the late 19th century. Initially, telephones were a luxury item, with only a few lines installed in the capital city, Lima, and other major urban centers.
• Manual exchanges: Early telephone systems in Peru used manual exchanges, where operators connected calls by manually plugging in cables to route the call to the desired destination. These manual systems were limited in their capacity, and telephone numbers were short, usually two or three digits.
• Automatic exchanges: In the early 20th century, as the demand for telephone service grew, manual exchanges were replaced by automatic systems. This change allowed for more efficient and faster call routing, and led to the expansion of the telephone network throughout the country.
• Introduction of area codes: As the telephone network expanded, area codes were introduced to better organize the system and identify the location of the call. These area codes, known as "indicativos" in Peru, are usually two or three digits and are followed by the local telephone number. For example, Lima has the area code 1.
• Expansion of telephone numbers: Over time, as the population of Peru grew and the demand for telephone service increased, the length of phone numbers also expanded. By the early 21st century, Peru had transitioned to a system with 7-digit local phone numbers, with some cities requiring an area code as well.
• Introduction of mobile phone numbers: The widespread adoption of mobile phones in Peru necessitated the creation of a separate numbering system for mobile numbers. These numbers generally start with a 9 and are followed by an 8-digit number. Mobile phone numbers are not tied to a specific geographic location like landline numbers.
• International dialing: To make international calls to and from Peru, the country uses the international dialing code +51. This code, along with the relevant area code and local number, allows callers to reach their desired destination from anywhere in the world.
