📍 Geographic Location of Bragado, Buenos Aires
Geographic Overview
The Argentine national destination code 2342 is a geographic area code assigned to the city of Bragado and its surrounding administrative district in the province of Buenos Aires. Bragado serves as the head town of the Bragado Partido, a key agricultural and commercial hub located approximately 210 km west of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. The code covers the urban area of Bragado, as well as smaller localities within the partido, such as O'Brien, La Limpia, and Comodoro Py, which rely on the same fixed-line infrastructure.
Dialing Formats
For callers within Argentina, the national trunk prefix 0 is used before the area code. The complete national significant number (NSN) for a Bragado fixed-line subscriber consists of the area code (2342) followed by a 6-digit subscriber number (e.g., 2342 456789). To call from a domestic phone, dial 0 2342 456789. For international callers, the Argentine country code (+54) replaces the trunk prefix, so the international format becomes +54 2342 456789 (note: the leading '0' is omitted).
Geographic Allocation and Numbering
As a geographic code, 2342 is part of the national numbering plan administered by the Ente Nacional de Comunicaciones (ENACOM). Subscriber numbers are allocated to fixed-line operators providing PSTN and VoIP services within the region. The code is not portable outside the geographic area; however, number portability within the same rate center is available, allowing users to retain their number when switching providers. The code is exclusively used for fixed-line services; mobile numbers in Argentina use non-geographic prefixes starting with 15 (after the area code) or dedicated mobile codes.
Caller Instructions
Local callers within Bragado can dial the 6-digit subscriber number directly without the area code. National callers from other Argentine cities must dial 0, then 2342, followed by the subscriber number. International callers should dial their country's exit code (e.g., 011 from the US), then 54, then 2342, and the subscriber number. Ensure that you drop the initial '0' of the national trunk prefix when dialing from abroad.
For businesses, displaying the number in international format (+54 2342 ...) is recommended to facilitate inbound calls from global clients. Always verify the subscriber number length, as some older lines may have fewer digits; however, current allocations consistently use 6 digits after the area code.
