Caribbean Netherlands bank logins all expect a +599 mobile.
What is the +599 country code?
The Caribbean Netherlands uses +599 — the old Netherlands Antilles code, now shared. Numbers are 7 digits with no area codes: Bonaire uses the 7-series, Sint Eustatius the 3-series + Saba the 4-series. Dial all 7 digits in full.
ITU zone 5 Caribbean
The Caribbean Netherlands sits in <b>ITU zone 5</b> (Central + South America + the Caribbean) on the <b>+599</b> country code — the legacy Netherlands Antilles code. After the Antilles dissolved in 2010, +599 was kept + shared: <b>Curaçao</b> took the "9" series, while the three BES islands kept the rest — <b>Bonaire = 7</b>, <b>Sint Eustatius = 3</b> + <b>Saba = 4</b>. Aruba (+297) + Sint Maarten (+1-721) moved to their own codes.
Dutch special municipalities
The Caribbean Netherlands is made up of three <b>special municipalities of the Netherlands proper</b> — <b>B</b>onaire, Sint <b>E</b>ustatius + <b>S</b>aba (the "BES islands"). Unlike Curaçao, Aruba + Sint Maarten (which are separate constituent countries of the Kingdom), the BES islands are governed directly under Dutch law. Mobile + fixed service is provided by <b>Flow</b>, <b>Digicel</b> + <b>Telbo</b> (Bonaire). Bonaire is the largest island; its main town is <b>Kralendijk</b>.
No area codes — 7 digits
There are <b>no area codes</b> on the BES islands — every number is exactly <b>7 digits</b>, dialed in full with no trunk prefix + no leading 0 to drop. The first digit signals the island: Bonaire <b>7XX XXXX</b>, Sint Eustatius <b>3XX XXXX</b>, Saba <b>4XX XXXX</b>. Notably, the Caribbean Netherlands uses the <b>US dollar (USD)</b> — it switched from the Antillean guilder to the US dollar in <b>2011</b> + does not use the euro. The official language is Dutch (Papiamento on Bonaire; English on Saba + Sint Eustatius).
Three islands, one code — but worlds apart. Bonaire sits in the south near Venezuela as one of the world's premier shore-diving destinations, ringed by a protected reef with flamingos + salt pans (part of the ABC islands). Hundreds of kilometres to the north near Sint Maarten lie tiny Saba — "The Unspoiled Queen", whose Mount Scenery is the highest point in the entire Kingdom of the Netherlands — + historic Sint Eustatius ("Statia"), the 18th-century "Golden Rock" trading hub. All three use the US dollar, Dutch law + the +599 code, and Caribbean Netherlands banks verify with +599 mobile OTPs.
A quick read on how it works.
A Caribbean Netherlands phone number in international format is written as +599 NNN NNNN — always exactly 7 digits. Example: +599 717 1234 for a Bonaire number, +599 786 1234 for a Bonaire mobile, +599 318 1234 for Sint Eustatius, +599 416 1234 for Saba. The first digit shows the island: 7 Bonaire, 3 Statia, 4 Saba.
Because the BES islands use a 7-digit plan with no area codes + no trunk prefix, there is no leading 0 to drop — you always dial all 7 digits. The +599 code is shared: Curaçao uses the "9" series (e.g. +599 9XX XXXX), so always keep the island's leading digit (7/3/4) to reach the Caribbean Netherlands rather than Curaçao.
Where a +599 number reaches.
From the dive reefs of Kralendijk on Bonaire to Mount Scenery on Saba + the Golden Rock of Statia, every BES number lives behind a +599 — all 7 digits, no area code. Pick a number that fits your customers across the Caribbean Netherlands.
How to call the Caribbean Netherlands from any country.
Every country uses a different exit code before +599. From any mobile, + replaces the exit code — so +599 717 1234 works worldwide. BES numbers are always 7 digits — never drop a digit, and keep the island's leading 7/3/4.

Six reasons people pick a Caribbean Netherlands number.
+599 reaches the three BES islands — Bonaire's world-class dive tourism, plus Saba + Statia — all on the US dollar + under Dutch law. Caribbean Netherlands banks + island services verify with a +599 mobile.
Caribbean Netherlands bank OTPs
Caribbean Netherlands banks (Maduro & Curiel's Bank, Banco di Caribe, RBC + local credit unions) + island government services send one-time codes to a +599 mobile. Without a Bonaire / Statia / Saba number, completing BES bank + service verifications from abroad is hard.
Bonaire dive-tourism business

US-dollar convenience
The Caribbean Netherlands has used the <b>US dollar</b> since 2011 — not the euro — so pricing, banking + payments align with the wider USD Caribbean + the Americas. A +599 number plugs straight into a dollar economy popular with North American visitors + investors.
Dutch administration + US reach
The BES islands are special municipalities of the Netherlands, governed under Dutch law, yet sit in the dollar-zone Caribbean within easy reach of the US, Venezuela + the rest of the ABC islands. A +599 line bridges EU-grade Dutch governance with American + Latin proximity.

The Caribbean Netherlands runs on Atlantic Standard Time (AST, UTC−4) all year with no daylight saving — the same clock as the US East Coast in summer, and one hour ahead of it in winter. Calling customers + partners across the Americas stays simple.
Simple 7-digit closed plan
The BES 7-digit plan is one of the cleanest anywhere: every number is exactly 7 digits, dialed the same way everywhere, with no area code + no trunk 0 to remember. <b>+599 717 1234</b> is dialed identically from Bonaire, Saba or abroad — just keep the island's leading digit.
