Palau numbering plan & how to dial
Under country code +680, Palau runs a closed numbering plan — just a 7-digit subscriber number after the country code, no area code required.
Palau has 68% internet penetration and is served by 2 major mobile networks (Palau National Communications Corp (PNCC), DocoMo Pacific). VoIP is permitted and regulated by Palau Public Utilities Corporation (PPUC). The local currency is USD and the primary language is English, which shape IVR prompts, SMS content, and business-hours handling.
Oceania's networks are geographically spread across wide time-zone gaps, so time-aware dialing and resilient international routes matter most here.
Skipping the exit code
Reaching Palau from the US requires the 011 exit code ahead of +680 — skip it and the call won't connect.
Adding an area code that doesn't exist
Don't insert an area code for Palau: it's a closed plan, so +680 plus the 7-digit number is the whole address.
Ignoring the time difference
Palau runs on Pacific/Palau. Check local hours before dialing so calls don't land outside business time.

FAQ
Calling Palau — frequently asked questions
Yes. VoIP is permitted in Palau, regulated by Palau Public Utilities Corporation (PPUC), so businesses can run cloud numbers and SIP termination on compliant routes. There's no special licensing hurdle for a Twiching customer to clear before calling or texting into Palau.
Palau uses a 7-digit subscriber number after the +680 country code, with no separate area code. Since there's no prefix layer to account for, the full dial string is always the same length for every number in the country.
The most common slip-up is adding an area code that doesn't exist — Palau uses a closed plan, so +680 is followed directly by the subscriber number. Inserting an extra prefix here will cause the call to fail rather than misroute.
The subscriber portion of a Palau number is 7 digits, after the country code. That's the part that identifies the specific line once the call has been routed to the right network.
Where locally supported, yes — Twiching's Palau numbers can send and receive SMS in addition to voice calls. That makes a single number usable for both two-way conversations and outbound notifications.
Palau's local currency is USD, which is worth factoring into any pricing or invoicing shown to customers there. Twiching's own per-minute rates to and from Palau are quoted in USD regardless of the local currency.
