Two quakes struck the country less than a minute apart - the second was the strongest to hit the country since 1900.
One official said 250 buildings had been damaged or destroyed, while rescuers have spent all day searching through the rubble.
Thousands of people remain missing and the entire area has been declared a disaster zone.
Venezuela's acting president Delcy Rodriguéz has appealed for international help.
