Enter your call length, or a number to see its exact rate:

A 30-minute call at Claro's S/ 2.00 per minute costs S/ 60. On 002call it is about $0.60.

Numbers that start with 0800

0800 numbers are free inside Peru and usually can't be reached from abroad. Look for a regular number on the organisation's website for callers overseas.

When to call

Peru has one time zone, Peru Time (UTC−5). The cards below show your time and the time in Lima.

Peru does not change its clocks, so the difference changes only when your country changes its clocks.

Call quality

A browser call needs a steady connection more than a fast one, using roughly half a megabyte to one megabyte of data per minute (an estimate).

• Use Wi-Fi or a good mobile signal.
• Use headphones to avoid echo.
• Switch off a VPN if the audio is choppy or one-way.
• Check the microphone permission if the other person can't hear you.
