How to read a number

+593912345678

+593Country code
Ecuador.
9Mobile prefix
Ecuador completed phase three of its numbering plan on 30 September 2012: the old one-digit mobile network code became a two-digit 9X, so a mobile number is 9 plus 8 digits (written 09XX XXX XXX domestically). CONATEL's ITU notification only explains the change, not who holds which range; and numbers are portable, so the range doesn't tell you the operator.

Carriers & prefixes

Mobile prefixes by carrier.

Number portability applies — a prefix only shows the original carrier.

Porting rules in full

Numbers are portable: Constituent Mandate No. 10 (2008) gave mobile users the right to keep their number when switching, and CONATEL then issued the porting rules. ARCOTEL's 2015 bulletin, citing those rules, says porting may take no more than 4 working days and is started by the user at the new operator; the first two ports in a calendar year are free, with a charge from the third. By March 2015, 1,351,989 numbers had been ported, 79.56% of them prepaid.
