Where is the Area Code +357 of WhatsApp?

The Area Code +357 in Whatsapp refers to a phone number in Cyprus.

This means that any message or call received on WhatsApp from a phone number that starts with the Area Code +357 will be from a Cyprus phone number.

All WhatsApp messages with Country Code +357 are from Cyprus?

If we receive a call or if we receive WhatsApp messages from a phone number that starts with an Country Code +357, this contact will have as origin a number of a SIM card originating from Cyprus.

This does not mean that if we receive a WhatsApp message with this prefix it must be located in Cyprus, but simply means that the SIM card is from this country. That is, a user can send or receive messages with a Cyprus Area Code (+357) but being located in a different country.

Therefore, one should be careful if receiving WhatsApp messages from an unknown number with +357 Area Codes, as it could be a phone scam. 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.

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 Cyprus the cost will be the same as if you send it to a phone located in another country.
