Costa Rica telephone numbers to change to 8 digits

Posted by Editor | July 10, 2007 | Categories: Local Business News | 1 Comment

According to an article in La Nacion yesterday, telephone numbers in Costa Rica are changing to 8 digits effective March 20, 2008. Existing telephone numbers will have an extra 2 at the beginning of the number so our local 750 numbers will become 2750 numbers.  ICE then will begin offering new numbers starting with a 5. This applies to Cellulars as well as land lines.
