Number format for Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is part of the +1 North American plan: area code 787, then seven digits, as in +1 787 234 5678. That area code is how the console tells Puerto Rico apart from the United States and charges the Puerto Rico price, so keep all eleven digits.

+1 787 234 5678

Alphabet and message length

Spanish uses letters outside GSM-7, such as á, í, ó and ú. Any one of them sends the whole text as Unicode, 70 characters per segment and 67 per part. Written without those marks the same text keeps 160 characters per segment, which often cuts a long message to less than half the segments.

Local time in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico keeps UTC-4 all year, with no clock change. A 09:00 start in Puerto Rico is 13:00 UTC; the console shows both times when you schedule.
