Area Code 2455 – French Harbour

Geographic Overview

The +504 2455 prefix is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the town of French Harbour, located on the island of Roatán in the Bay Islands department of Honduras. This area is part of the Caribbean coastal region and is known for its tourism and diving industry. The prefix covers the local exchange area serving French Harbour and its immediate surroundings, including nearby communities on the eastern side of Roatán.

Dialing Formats

To call a number in French Harbour from within Honduras, dial the 8-digit national number directly: 2455-XXXX (where XXXX is the subscriber's 4-digit line number). No trunk prefix '0' is required for domestic calls within Honduras. From abroad, callers must use the international format: +504 2455-XXXX, replacing the leading '+' with the appropriate international access code (e.g., 011 from the US/Canada, 00 from most European countries).

Number Structure

Honduran fixed-line numbers are 8 digits long, with the first four digits representing the NDC (area code) and the last four being the subscriber number. The 2455 prefix is part of the national numbering plan managed by the Comisión Nacional de Telecomunicaciones (CONATEL).

Caller Instructions

• Local callers: Dial 2455-XXXX directly.
• International callers: Dial your country's exit code + 504 + 2455-XXXX.
• Roaming or VoIP users: Always use the international format to avoid misrouting.

Overlay and Regulatory Notes

As of the latest CONATEL updates, there are no overlay codes for the Roatán area; the 2455 prefix is exclusive to French Harbour. However, number portability is not yet fully implemented for fixed lines in Honduras, so the prefix generally indicates the geographic location of the line. For tourism-related businesses, hotels, and local services, this prefix is essential for reaching customers and partners. When dialing from abroad, ensure you have the correct international access code and the full 8-digit local number.
