Communication of 4.VIII.2010

The Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones, Lima, announces the implementation, by Ministerial Resolution No 477-2009-MTC/03, of the Virtual Mobile Area, which is due to come into effect on 4 September 2010.

The Virtual Mobile Area is a single mobile area for the whole of Peru (national coverage), whereby the numbering of mobile services is henceforth considered to be "non-geographic", i.e. not associated with any given departamento. The effect of this is to do away, where mobile services are concerned, with numbering areas defined according to departamentos. Calls will therefore no longer be differentiated according to geographic considerations, i.e. according to whether they are local or national long-distance.

Application of the Virtual Mobile Area encompasses the following public telecommunication services:

1) Mobile telephony

2) Personal communications service (PCS)

3) Automatic dialling (digital trunked) multiple channel service

4) Mobile-satellite service.

At the international level:

Persons located in another country and wishing to place a call to a mobile telephone in Peru must take account of the following changes:

From another country to a mobile telephone in Peru
Old dialling arrangement	New dialling arrangement (as from 4 September 2010)
51 + city code + mobile telephone number	51 + mobile telephone number

In other words, callers will need to key in only the country code for Peru (51), followed by the nine-digit number of the called mobile telephone, for any region within Peru.

At the national level:

To call a mobile telephone from anywhere in Peru, from a fixed or mobile telephone or payphone, it will be necessary to key in only the nine-digit number of the called mobile telephone.

To place a call from a mobile to a fixed telephone, the caller will first key in “0”, followed by the city code and number of the fixed telephone in question.

From one mobile telephone to another
Old dialling arrangement		New dialling arrangement (as from 4 September 2010)
Local	National long distance	Nationwide
Mobile telephone number	0 + city code + mobile telephone number	Mobile telephone number

From a fixed telephone (subscriber or payphone) to a mobile telephone
Old dialling arrangement		New dialling arrangement (as from 4 September 2010)
Local	National long distance	Nationwide
Mobile telephone number	0 + city code + mobile telephone number	Mobile telephone number

From a mobile to a fixed telephone
Old dialling arrangement		New dialling arrangement (as from 4 September 2010)
Local	National long distance	Nationwide
Fixed telephone number	0 + city code + fixed telephone number	0 + city code + fixed telephone number

NOTE – There is no change in dialling procedures between fixed telephones.

Telegram Service

Bahrain

Communication of 19.VIII.2010:

Change in the Telegram Service

Bahrain Telecommunications Company (Batelco), Manama, announces that with immediate effect all international telegrams to and from Bahrain must be routed through Unitel. The telegram destination indicator BNBA allocated to Bahrain remains in force and must be used for all telegrams to Bahrain. This applies for both ITA2 and APU80 telegrams.

Responsibility for international rates and settlements will reside with Unitel which will handle all accounting and settlements relating to telegram traffic to and from Bahrain on a cascade accounting basis.

Telegram operating companies are therefore kindly requested to contact Unitel directly as shown below to arrange for the provision of access and negotiate accounting rates to apply.
