What to know when calling Spain

  • •August is vacation month; nationwide business slows from 1–31 August and many SMBs close entirely the second and third weeks.
  • •Spanish mobile numbers are 9 digits starting with 6 or 7; landlines also 9 digits starting with 8 or 9. There are no separate trunk codes — Madrid '91' is part of the 9-digit local number, not a city prefix.
  • •Long lunches (2 hours) remain normal outside Madrid/Barcelona; calling between 14:00–16:00 in cities like Seville or Granada is futile.
