How to Dial the United States From Mexico on a Cell Phone

As every region in the United States is assigned an area code for calling purposes, so is each country designated a specific country code. International calls to a foreign county require both the exit code of the country in which the phone call originates and the code of the country you are calling. You can dial the United States from Mexico easily using the appropriate codes. Calling the U.S. from a cell phone in Mexico may require activation of international service.
