How to Call Honduras from the US

To call Honduras from the US, dial 011 + 504 + the 8-digit Honduran number. Tegucigalpa landline example: 011-504-2234-XXXX. San Pedro Sula: 011-504-2550-XXXX. Honduran mobile: 011-504-9XXX-XXXX (mobiles start with 3, 7, 8, or 9).

The 011 is the US international exit code. The 504 is Honduras’s country code. This pattern works from any US landline or mobile — on a smartphone you can substitute + for 011, dialing +504 2234 XXXX.

How to dial Honduras from the US

Follow these three steps every time:

1. Dial 011 — the US exit code for all international calls. On a mobile keypad, long-press 0 to enter + as a shortcut; + works identically to 011 on smartphones.
2. Dial 504 — Honduras’s ITU-assigned country code, shared by both fixed lines and mobiles.
3. Dial the full 8-digit number exactly as written. Honduras has no national trunk prefix and no area codes, so there is nothing to drop — you dial all 8 digits straight through.

The complete pattern: 011 504 <8-digit number>.

If you see a Honduran number already formatted with +504 (common on business cards and websites), replace the + with 011 from a US landline, or dial it as-is from a smartphone.

How Honduran numbers are formatted

Honduras uses a closed 8-digit numbering plan. Every number — landline or mobile — is exactly 8 digits, with no leading 0 and no separate area code.

The first digit signals the line type:

First digit	Line type
2	Fixed landline
3, 7, 8, 9	Mobile
800	Toll-free (domestic only)

Because there is no trunk prefix, the number you see locally is the same number you dial from abroad after 011 504. This is simpler than European countries such as Germany or France, where you must strip a leading 0 before dialing internationally.

Honduran cities and fixed-line ranges

Honduras does not assign dialable area codes, but fixed-line numbers are allocated in ranges loosely tied to regions. These prefixes are part of the 8-digit number — you do not dial them separately.

City	Typical fixed-line range	Dial from US
Tegucigalpa	22xx xxxx	011 504 + full 8 digits
San Pedro Sula	25xx xxxx	011 504 + full 8 digits
La Ceiba	24xx xxxx	011 504 + full 8 digits

Mobile numbers are nationwide and not tied to any city. A mobile beginning with 9 in Tegucigalpa is dialed exactly the same way as one in San Pedro Sula: 011 504 followed by the 8-digit number.

Time zone: Central Standard Time, no DST

Honduras observes Central Standard Time (UTC-6) all year and does not change clocks for daylight saving. That makes scheduling unusually predictable compared with countries that switch twice a year.

US time zone	Offset during US standard time (winter)	Offset during US daylight saving (summer)
Eastern (ET)	Honduras -1 h	Honduras -2 h
Central (CT)	Honduras same	Honduras -1 h
Mountain (MT)	Honduras +1 h	Honduras same
Pacific (PT)	Honduras +2 h	Honduras +1 h

For most of the year, while the US is on daylight saving, Honduras is 2 hours behind US Eastern and aligned with US Mountain Time. Because Honduras never shifts, the only variation comes from the US side changing clocks each spring and fall.

The reliable overlap window is generous: 9 AM-5 PM ET lands inside the Honduran workday year-round, so you rarely need to call outside normal US hours to reach a Honduran office during its business day.

US to Honduras calling costs

Costs vary significantly by calling method:

• US carrier per-minute (no plan): major US carriers charge a per-minute rate to Honduras that can reach a few dollars per minute without an international add-on. Fine for a call or two per month. Confirm the current published rate before dialing, as carriers update them periodically.
• Carrier international add-on packages: a monthly fee reduces the per-minute rate. Worthwhile if you call Honduras regularly.
• VoIP providers (including DialPhone): flat per-minute rates to Honduras that typically undercut carrier add-ons, with no monthly minimum. For US-Honduras business calling at any volume, a VoIP plan on DialPhone business phone pays for itself quickly.
• Free app-to-app (WhatsApp, Signal): works if the Honduran side also uses the app and has Wi-Fi/data. Not viable for reaching most Honduran landlines or businesses.

See DialPhone pricing for current per-minute Honduras rates included in each plan tier.

Calling Honduran mobile vs landline from the US

From a US perspective, the dialing procedure is identical: 011 504 <8-digit number>. The difference lies in the number itself:

• Landlines start with the digit 2 and are 8 digits long.
• Mobiles start with 3, 7, 8, or 9 and are also 8 digits long.

You identify the line type by that first digit, not by digit count — both are always 8 digits. VoIP providers including DialPhone typically apply a single flat rate per Honduran destination regardless of landline vs mobile, while some US carrier plans price mobile destinations higher.

SMS to Honduras and business use cases

US-to-Honduras SMS works from most US mobile plans — the same international add-on that covers calls usually covers texts. Address the message to +504 followed by the 8-digit Honduran mobile number. Business-grade SMS (A2P, bulk, or CRM-triggered) requires a provider supporting international SMS routing to Honduran networks.

US-Honduras B2B context where this matters most:

• Outsourcing and BPO: Honduras hosts a growing nearshore call-center and back-office sector serving US companies. A predictable UTC-6 time zone and same-workday overlap make live coordination easy.
• Manufacturing and apparel: US importers coordinate regularly with Honduran textile and assembly operations; a recognizable, verified caller ID improves answer rates with local plant contacts.
• Remittances and family business: a large US-based Honduran community drives steady call volume, where flat per-minute pricing avoids surprise carrier charges.

For US businesses with recurring Honduras volume, a DialPhone business phone plan routes calls over the internet at a flat per-minute rate and keeps your caller ID consistent on outbound calls.

FAQ

Calling Honduras FAQ

What is the country code for Honduras? +

Honduras's country code is +504. From a US landline or mobile, you reach it by dialing the US international exit code 011 first, making the full prefix 011 504. From a smartphone that supports E.164 dialing you can substitute + for 011, so +504 works identically.

Do I need to drop a leading 0 when calling Honduras from the US? +

No. Unlike many European countries, Honduras uses a closed 8-digit numbering plan with no national trunk prefix and no area codes — there is no leading 0 to drop.

You dial the 8-digit Honduran number exactly as it is written, after the 011 504 prefix. A number written locally as 2234 5678 is dialed from the US as 011 504 2234 5678.

How do I call a Honduran mobile number from the US? +

Honduran mobile numbers are 8 digits and start with 3, 7, 8, or 9. Dial 011 + 504 + the full 8-digit number — there is no leading 0 or area code to remove.

Example: a mobile written as 9876 5432 is dialed from the US as 011 504 9876 5432. Landlines start with 2, so the first digit tells you whether you are reaching a fixed line or a mobile.

What is the best time to call Honduras from the US? +

Honduras is on Central Standard Time (UTC-6) year-round and does not observe daylight saving. It is 1 hour behind US Eastern during US standard time and 2 hours behind US Eastern during US daylight saving (most of the year).

The overlap with US business hours is wide: 9 AM-5 PM ET maps to roughly 7 AM-3 PM in Honduras during US summer, so almost any US working hour reaches a Honduran office during its workday.

How much does it cost to call Honduras from the US? +

Standard US carrier rates without an international plan can run a few dollars per minute to Honduras. Carrier international add-on packages charge a monthly fee to lower the per-minute rate.

VoIP providers including DialPhone charge a flat per-minute rate to Honduran destinations that is typically lower than carrier add-on plans, with no monthly minimum for low-volume callers. Check current published carrier rates before you dial, since they change periodically.

Can I call Honduran toll-free (800) numbers from the US? +

Honduran toll-free numbers generally begin with 800 and are free only when dialed from within Honduras. Calling them from the US will either fail to connect or connect at a standard international rate.

If you need to reach a Honduran business that only lists an 800 number, ask for its geographic +504 number (landlines start with 2) as a reliable alternative from abroad.

How do I tell a Honduran mobile from a landline? +

The first digit of the 8-digit number identifies the line type. Numbers starting with 2 are fixed landlines; numbers starting with 3, 7, 8, or 9 are mobiles.

There are no separate area codes in Honduras, so you cannot identify a city from the dialing prefix the way you can in many countries — fixed-line ranges like 22xx (Tegucigalpa) or 25xx (San Pedro Sula) are allocation conventions, not codes you dial separately.

How do I save a Honduran number in my phone contacts? +

Save Honduran numbers in full E.164 international format: +504 followed by the 8-digit number with no spaces or leading 0. For example, 2234 5678 should be saved as +504 2234 5678.

This format works from any country without modification, prevents dialing errors when roaming, and is the standard format expected by CRMs and VoIP platforms including DialPhone.
