Call the USA from Portugal
Reach a US family number, colleague or business from Portugal. Check the rate in USD, compare the recipient's local time and call their regular phone from your browser.
An afternoon in Lisbon, a different hour in America
Use the live comparison to choose the US city you need. Lisbon is the mainland Portugal reference here; if you are in the Azores, check your own local clock too. A West Coast office can still be closed when an East Coast contact is already available.
Keep the US format ready in Portugal
Enter +1 followed by the area code and seven-digit number. The plus sign is the clearest browser format; do not add Portugal's country code or combine + with another international access prefix. For a company, keep its published international number and any extension separately.
US international number format
+1, then the three-digit area code and seven-digit local number. Check the full number and current rate before calling. Other countries share the +1 code, so confirm the destination is identified as the USA.
Questions before you call
Which Portugal time does the calling comparison use?
It uses Lisbon for mainland Portugal. The Azores have a different local time, so compare against your own clock when calling from there. Select the recipient's US city as well.
