📍 Geographic Location of Murwillumbah
Geographic Overview
Australian area code 2667 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the town of Murwillumbah and its surrounding localities in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales. This code falls within the larger 02 numbering plan area, which covers New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. Murwillumbah is situated near the Queensland border, approximately 130 kilometres south of Brisbane, and serves as a key administrative and commercial centre for the Tweed Shire.

Dialling Formats
For callers within Australia, the local dialling format for numbers in the 2667 area is the ten-digit national significant number: 02 2667 XXXX. When dialling from a landline within the same geographic region, it may be possible to omit the trunk prefix and area code, but due to the widespread adoption of ten-digit dialling across Australia, it is recommended to always include the full number. For international callers, the correct format is +61 2 2667 XXXX, where the leading zero of the trunk prefix is dropped and replaced with the +61 country code.
Caller Instructions
Local callers within Murwillumbah should dial the full ten-digit number to ensure connectivity, especially when calling from mobile phones. Foreign callers must use the international access code of their country (e.g., 011 from the US, 00 from most European countries) followed by Australia's country code 61, then the area code 2 (without the leading zero), and the subscriber number. For example, to call a Murwillumbah number from the United States, one would dial 011 61 2 2667 XXXX.
Regulatory and Technical Notes
The 2667 prefix is administered by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) and is allocated to local exchange areas within the Telstra and Optus network infrastructure. As with all geographic numbers in Australia, the service is provided over the PSTN and is also accessible via VoIP providers. Number portability allows customers to retain their 2667 number when switching service providers, but the number remains associated with the geographic location for regulatory purposes. There are no overlay codes currently assigned to the Murwillumbah area, so the 2667 prefix remains the primary local exchange code for this region.
