Starting in March 2027, the Peruvian Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) will require commercial and advertising telephone numbers to begin with the prefix "500." This regulation applies to calls made to sell products, offer services, or promote subscriptions such as phone plans or health services.
The measure is designed to empower consumers by allowing them to easily identify spam calls before answering. The implementation provides a standardized identification system for telemarketing and commercial outreach efforts.
