Geographic Overview
Area code 782 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the northern region of the state of Veracruz, Mexico. Its primary service area is the city of Poza Rica de Hidalgo, commonly known as Poza Rica, along with surrounding municipalities such as Coatzintla, Tihuatlán, and Papantla. This code covers a mix of urban and semi-rural zones, including residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, and industrial areas linked to the region's petrochemical and energy sectors.
Dialing Formats
When dialing a number within Mexico from another Mexican state, the trunk prefix '01' must be used, followed by the area code and the seven-digit local number. For example, to call a landline in Poza Rica from Mexico City, you would dial: 01 782 123 4567.
For international callers, the format is: +52 782 123 4567, where '+52' is Mexico's country calling code. The '782' is the NDC, and the remaining seven digits constitute the subscriber number. It is important to note that the leading '01' is not included when dialing from abroad.
Local Dialing and Overlays
Within the 782 area code region, local calls are made by dialing only the seven-digit subscriber number. There is no overlay code in this area, meaning 782 is the sole area code for the region.
