Landesvorwahl Peru +51 – Rufen Sie Peru an und holen Sie sich eine Nummer.
Peru teilt seine Nummern sauber in zwei Teile auf: Jede Mobiltelefonnummer ist eine landesweite 9-stellige Nummer, die mit 9 beginnt, während Festnetznummern an geografische Codes gebunden sind – eine einstellige 1 für Lima, zwei Ziffern für die Anden- und Küstenregionen. Hier erfahren Sie, wie Sie +51 aus den USA, Großbritannien und ganz Lateinamerika wählen, alle Vorwahlen, Live-Zeit und Wetter sowie virtuelle Nummern aus Peru von MCM.

Peru auf einen Blick
Die Zahlen und Fakten, die Sie vor dem Wählen benötigen.
Wie lautet die Ländervorwahl für Peru?
+51 ist Perus internationale Vorwahl. Geben Sie es nach Ihrer Ausgangsvorwahl ein und der Anruf wird in das peruanische Netz weitergeleitet – ein Festnetzanschluss in Lima mit der Vorwahl 1 oder ein 9-stelliges Mobiltelefon irgendwo oben in den Anden. Lassen Sie es weg und der Anruf findet Peru überhaupt nicht.
Code +51 zugewiesen wurde Peru von der ITU im Rahmen des E.164-Plans. Der “+” bedeutet „Wählen Sie Ihren lokalen internationalen Exit-Code“; Halten Sie auf einem Mobiltelefon die Taste gedrückt 0 um es zu tippen.
Alle vier bedeuten dasselbe – sie verbinden Ihren Anruf mit Peru.
So rufen Sie Peru von überall aus an
Einleitung: „Es kommt immer darauf an: Ausgangsvorwahl + 51 + Ortsvorwahl oder Mobilfunkvorwahl (ohne führende 0) + Teilnehmernummer – bei Mobiltelefonen wird die Ortsvorwahl jedoch komplett übersprungen.“
Vollständiges Beispiel: +51 1 XXX XXXX — Weglassen der lokalen führenden 0, wenn Sie aus dem Ausland anrufen.
Das peruanische Telefonnummernformat wird erklärt
Peru führt zwei Zahlenformen nebeneinander aus. Mobiltelefone bestehen aus festen 9 Ziffern, die immer mit 9 beginnen und an keine Stadt gebunden sind. Festnetzanschlüsse koppeln eine Ortsvorwahl mit einer Teilnehmernummer – und entscheidend ist, dass die Vorwahl von Lima eine einzelne 1 ist, während jede Provinz zwei Ziffern verwendet. Die Amtsleitungs-0, die Sie im Inland sehen, wird beim Wählen aus dem Ausland immer abgeschaltet.

Peru mobile network prefixes
The prefix after +51 tells you which network issued the SIM — though number portability means it no longer guarantees the operator.
Claro (América Móvil)
9XX — largest network, wide rural coverage.
Movistar (Telefónica)
9XX — major incumbent operator nationwide.
Entel
9XX — strong urban and data coverage.
Bitel (Viettel)
9XX — fast-growing challenger, strong in the regions.
Peru time zone
Peru holds Peru Time (UTC-5) all year and never touches daylight saving — the same fixed offset as Colombia and Ecuador next door. What shifts isn't Peru but the countries that do observe DST.
9am–12pm in Peru lands neatly inside US business hours — and because Peru never moves its clocks, that overlap only drifts when the US itself switches in and out of DST.

Common mistakes when calling Peru
Almost every failed international call is a formatting issue, not a network issue.
Treating a mobile like a landline (or vice versa): this is Peru's defining split. A number starting with 9 is a nationwide mobile
dial the full 9 digits with no area code. Anything else is a landline that needs its geographic code in front. Mix them up and the call fails.
Reading Puno's 51 as the country code: the Puno region uses area code 51, which looks exactly like Peru's country code +51. They're different things
+51 51 ... is a Puno landline.
Keeping the leading 0: drop it
dial +51 1, not +51 01. That 0 is for domestic dialing only.
Forgetting the exit code before 51: from the US you still need 011 (or "+") in front first
Forgetting the exit code before 51: from the US you still need 011 (or "+") in front first.
Wrong exit code at home: the US uses 011, while the UK, Europe and most of Latin America use 00
or just dial "+" on a mobile.
Tips to reduce the cost of calling Peru
Route over VoIP: carry the call across the internet and pay a fraction of a direct international per-minute rate.
Hold a Peru virtual number: let contacts reach you on a local Lima 1 line at local rates.
Use Peru's fixed clock to your advantage: with no DST, your best call windows stay put
only the US or EU end ever shifts.
Compare landline vs mobile rates: calls to 9-digit mobiles often cost more than to a Lima landline, so check before a long call.

Peru +51 — FAQ
How do I tell a Peruvian mobile from a landline?expand_more
Look at the first digit. Every Peruvian mobile is a 9-digit number that starts with 9 and carries no area code. Anything that starts with an area code (1 for Lima, two digits for the provinces) is a landline.
Why does Puno's area code look like Peru's country code?expand_more
Both are 51 — Peru's country code is +51 and the Puno region's landline area code is also 51. So +51 51 ... is a Puno landline, not a doubled country code.
Why is Lima's area code just one digit when every other city has two?expand_more
Lima (with Callao) is the only region assigned the single-digit code 1; provinces like Cusco (84), Arequipa (54) and Trujillo (44) all use two-digit codes.
How do I call a Peruvian mobile from the US?expand_more
Dial 011, then 51, then the full 9-digit mobile starting with 9 — for example 011 51 999 123 456. No area code goes in front of a mobile.
Does Peru change its clocks for daylight saving?expand_more
No. Peru stays on PET (UTC-5) all year, so the only time the gap to the US or Europe shifts is when those countries move in and out of their own daylight saving.
What are the area codes for Peru's main cities?expand_more
Lima 1, Arequipa 54, Cusco 84, Trujillo 44, Chiclayo 74 and Piura 73 — with most Andean and coastal regions on their own two-digit code.
Can I tell which network a mobile is on from its number?expand_more
Not reliably — every Peruvian mobile starts with 9, and number portability lets subscribers move between Claro, Movistar, Entel and Bitel while keeping the same number.
Can I get a Peruvian number without living there?expand_more
Yes — MCM provides Peru virtual numbers with a real local caller ID, such as a Lima 1 line, with no residency or local office required.
