Getting a Mexican virtual phone number for your business

Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey: a +52 number shows your Mexican prospects a domestic call. Since the numbering reform, every number in the country, landline or mobile, has 10 digits.

For a landline, the company’s address must be within the area code’s zone, and the Constancia de Situación Fiscal, issued by the SAT (the tax authority), proves the company exists. In practice, you need a company on the Mexican tax register.

For a mobile, the address can be anywhere in the world: a foreign company provides its articles of incorporation or registration document and enters a generic RFC. The application is fuller (website, the representative’s ID and email, proof of their authority), and these numbers are reserved for person-to-person communication.

Country code and number format

Local (landline)
+52 +52, then 10 digits: a 2-digit area code for the largest cities (55 or 56 Mexico City, 33 Guadalajara, 81 Monterrey), 3 digits elsewhere, then the number. Example: +52 55 1234 5678.
Mobile
+52 Same 10-digit format as landlines: +52, then 10 digits, without the 1 formerly added after +52. Example: +52 33 1234 5678.

What you need to know

Ten digits everywhere

10-digit dialling has applied since 3 August 2019, and the old 01, 044 and 045 prefixes have been removed. From abroad, the 1 formerly added after +52 to reach a mobile is no longer needed. The IFT, which set this plan, was replaced in October 2025 by the Comisión Reguladora de Telecomunicaciones (CRT).

Mobiles for person-to-person communication

Mexican mobile numbers are reserved for person-to-person communication: local carriers block automated (A2P) traffic on this number type.

The RFC and the Constancia

The RFC (Registro Federal de Contribuyentes) is the tax ID issued by the SAT, 12 characters long for a company. It appears on the Constancia de Situación Fiscal. A foreign company without an RFC enters the generic code XEXX010101000.

Yes for a mobile: the address can be anywhere in the world (except a PO box), with your articles of incorporation or registration document and the generic RFC XEXX010101000. For a landline, you need an address within the area code’s zone and a Constancia de Situación Fiscal, so a company registered in Mexico.
A power of attorney drawn up before a notary. It proves the representative can act for the company when their name appears neither on the registration document nor on the articles of incorporation. It must be signed by a director or officer who does appear there.
No. Landlines and mobiles are now dialled the same way: +52 followed by the 10-digit number.
