Calling Instructions

• Local callers (within Progreso): If you are in the same area code, you may dial only the seven-digit subscriber number (e.g., 2647-1234) or the full national format (0-2647-1234), depending on your operator's requirements.
• National callers (from other regions of Honduras): Dial 0-2647-XXXX.
• International callers: Dial your country's exit code, then 504 (Honduras country code), followed by the area code and subscriber number: +504 2647-XXXX.

Numbering Plan Considerations

Honduras uses an open dialing plan with a national trunk prefix. The country's numbering plan is administered by the Comisión Nacional de Telecomunicaciones (CONATEL). Geographic area codes are assigned to specific regions, and number lengths are uniform at eight digits (including the area code) for fixed lines. As of the latest updates, there are no overlay codes in Progreso; the 2647 code is exclusively used for the Progreso area. However, subscribers should verify with their service provider for any recent changes or number portability options.

This area code is used for traditional PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) services, including fixed-line telephony and some VoIP services that are geographically tied to the region. When dialing from abroad, ensure you have the correct international exit code for your country (e.g., 011 from the US, 00 from most European countries).
