+258 Country Code WhatsApp

Which Country Code is 258 in WhatsApp?

The Country Code +258 in Whatsapp refers to a phone number in Mozambique.

This means that any message or call received on WhatsApp from a phone number that starts with the Area Code +258 will be from a Mozambique phone number.

All WhatsApp messages with Area Code +258 are from Mozambique?

If we receive a call or if we receive WhatsApp messages from a phone number that starts with an Country Code +258, this contact will have as origin a number of a SIM card originating from Mozambique.

This does not mean that if we receive a WhatsApp message with this prefix it must be located in Mozambique, but simply means that the SIM card is from this country. That is, a user can send or receive messages with a Mozambique Area Code (+258) but being located in a different country.

Therefore, one should be careful if receiving messages from an unknown number with +258 Area Codes, as it could be a WhatsApp spam. Therefore if you do not know anyone from that country of origin, it is recommended that you do not respond and block that contact in the application.

Does calling or sending Whatsapp messages to phones with the country code +258 have an extra cost?

No, any message sent through the Whatsapp application will have the same cost regardless of the phone number contacted. So if you send a message to Mozambique the cost will be the same as if you send it to a phone located in another country.
