📍 Geographic Location of Villa María, Córdoba
Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction
The Argentine national destination code 3535 is a geographic area code assigned under the national numbering plan administered by the Ente Nacional de Comunicaciones (ENACOM). It serves the city of Villa María and its surrounding localities within the province of Córdoba. This code covers the departmental jurisdiction of General San Martín, including nearby towns such as Villa Nueva, Arroyo Cabral, and La Playosa. As a geographic prefix, 3535 routes calls to fixed-line PSTN and VoIP services physically located within this specific region.
Dialing Formats and Caller Instructions
For local callers within the 3535 area, the national dialing format requires the prefix 03535 followed by the six-digit subscriber number (e.g., 03535 42-1234). When calling from another province or mobile network within Argentina, the complete national significant number is 03535 plus the subscriber number, preceded by the national trunk prefix 0. International callers must dial the Argentine country code +54, then the area code without the leading zero, and the subscriber number: +54 3535 42-1234.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
Currently, there is no overlay code for the 3535 region; the area code remains exclusive to Villa María and its vicinity. However, ENACOM has implemented number portability across the country, allowing fixed-line users to retain their numbers when switching service providers. This means that a number with the 3535 prefix may be served by any licensed fixed telephony operator, not just the incumbent. Callers should be aware that the geographic prefix does not necessarily indicate the physical location of the called party if the number has been ported.
