Brazil Talk!
Filed under: Brazil General - May 5th, 2005
For those of you travelling to Brazil, or who have family travelling there wondering what is the best and cheapest way to call, this article is one you should read. From previous experience I quickly learned that the phone companies such as AT&T or Bell are not the way to go. What I found that really worked are phone cards. The one I chose had no connection fees, and cost about 8-10 cents per minute depending where I call from. I recommend the no connections fee cards because sometimes you will have a very poor connection which is usually fixed with a quick call back.
To call Brazil you will need to dial:
Exit Country Code + 55 + City Code + The Number
City and City Code
Sao Paulo 11
Rio de Janeiro 21
Brasilia 61
Curitiba 41
Fortaleza 85
Campinas 19
