What is the country code for Suriname?

Suriname picks up on +597, and its numbering plan is refreshingly uncomplicated. There are no area codes to look up and no trunk "0" to weigh — just one flat national pool. Fixed lines run to 6 digits, mobiles to 7, and you dial the whole thing the same way whether you're standing in Paramaribo or calling in from Amsterdam. Exit code, 597, then the full local number.

Codice +597 was assigned to Suriname by the ITU under the E.164 plan. The “+” significa "comporre il prefisso di uscita internazionale locale"; su un cellulare, tieni premuto 0 per digitarlo.

Suriname phone number format explained

There's no area code step here — but the first digit still carries a hint. On a 6-digit landline, a leading 4 points to Paramaribo and a 5 to Wanica and greater Paramaribo, so the geography lives inside the number rather than in front of it. Mobiles are a clean 7 digits with no district logic at all.

Landline

6 digits, e.g. +597 4XX XXX (Paramaribo), +597 5XX XXX (Wanica)

Mobile

7 digits, e.g. +597 7XX XXXX (Digicel), +597 8XX XXXX (Telesur)

Suriname mobile network prefixes

The prefix after +597 tells you which network issued the SIM — though number portability means it no longer guarantees the operator.

T

Telesur (Telecommunicatiebedrijf Suriname)

+597 state-owned incumbent since 1980; mobiles start with 8; widest coverage including the interior.

DS

Digicel Suriname

+597 entered 2007; mobiles start with 7; aggressive prepaid pricing.

07Fuso orario

Suriname time zone

Suriname keeps one clock all year: Suriname Time (SRT) at UTC-3, with no daylight saving to track. Handily, it shares that exact offset with São Paulo and the Brazilian coast, so calls south never need a time-math check. The country famously moved off the half-hour offset it once used, settling on the round UTC-3 it holds today.

Common mistakes when calling Suriname

Quasi ogni chiamata internazionale fallita è un problema di formattazione, non di rete.

Hunting for an area code that doesn't exist

Suriname's plan is flat, so there's nothing to insert between 597 and the number.

Adding a trunk "0" out of habit

Suriname never uses one.

Mismatching the length

landlines are 6 digits, mobiles are 7, and padding either to "look right" breaks the call.

Dialling 911 in an emergency

Suriname splits services out: Police 115, Fire 110, Ambulance 113.

Forgetting the 597 entirely when calling from abroad, leaving a bare local number that won't route

10Risparmia denaro

Tips to reduce the cost of calling Suriname

Carry calls over VoIP or an MCM virtual number rather than paying carrier rates into Suriname.

Check whether your plan bundles South America or Caribbean minutes

Suriname sometimes rides in either basket.

Hold a +597 DID so Surinamese callers reach you on a local number for next to nothing.

Turn on Wi-Fi calling while you're in-country to dodge roaming fees.

11Per affari

Why businesses get a Suriname virtual number

Tassi di risposta più elevati

a familiar +597 line gets answered where an overseas code gets left to ring.

Lower trust friction

a real Surinamese DID beats a foreign caller ID at first glance.

In entrata più economico

Instradamento centralizzato

send those +597 calls to a team anywhere on the map.

Domande frequenti

Suriname +597 — FAQ

Does Suriname have area codes I need to look up?expand_more

No. The plan is completely flat — dial +597 and the full local number with nothing in between.

Why does a Suriname landline have fewer digits than the mobile?expand_more

Landlines run to 6 digits and mobiles to 7; the lengths simply differ, so match whichever you're dialling rather than padding to a uniform count.

Is there a 911 in Suriname?expand_more

No single emergency line — it's split by service: Police 115, Fire 110, Ambulance 113.

What does the first digit of a Suriname landline tell me?expand_more

Rough geography: a 4 points to Paramaribo and a 5 to Wanica and greater Paramaribo, baked into the number rather than dialled as a prefix.

How do I tell Telesur from Digicel by the number?expand_more

Telesur mobiles open with 8, Digicel mobiles open with 7 — both are 7 digits long.

Is Suriname on the same time as Brazil?expand_more

Yes for the coast — Suriname's UTC-3 matches São Paulo hour-for-hour, with no daylight saving to shift it.

Since Suriname is Dutch-speaking, do I call it like the Netherlands?expand_more

No. It sits in South America on +597, not on the Netherlands' +31, even though Dutch is the official language.

How do I call Suriname from the US or the Netherlands?expand_more

From the US dial 011 597 then the full number; from the Netherlands dial 00 597 then the full number.
