📍 Geographic Location of Apetlon

Geographic Overview

The Austrian area code +43 2175 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the town of Apetlon and its immediate surroundings in the state of Burgenland. Apetlon is located in the Seewinkel region, near the Hungarian border and the renowned Lake Neusiedl (Neusiedler See). The code covers the administrative area of the municipality of Apetlon, which includes the main town and any smaller settlements within its jurisdiction. The region is characterized by its flat, marshy landscape and is part of the Neusiedler See-Seewinkel National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Dialing Formats

When calling a landline in Apetlon, the subscriber number typically consists of 5 to 7 digits after the area code. The complete international dialing format is:

  • International: +43 2175 [subscriber number]
  • National (from within Austria): 0 2175 [subscriber number]

For example, if the local subscriber number is 12345, you would dial:

  • From abroad: +43 2175 12345
  • From an Austrian landline or mobile: 0 2175 12345

Note that when dialing from a mobile phone within Austria, the leading '0' is still required for geographic numbers, unless you are using the +43 international format.

Caller Instructions

For local callers (within Apetlon): In some smaller exchanges, local calls may be dialed without the area code if the number is within the same local network. However, it is always safe to include the full national format (0 2175) to ensure proper routing.

For international callers: Replace the leading '0' with the Austrian country code (+43) and omit the '0' from the area code. So, the international format is +43 2175 [subscriber number].

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest ITU-T E.164 data, there is no overlay code for the 2175 area. The Austrian Regulatory Authority (RTR) has not implemented any overlay plans for this rural region. Subscriber numbers are assigned directly by the incumbent provider (A1 Telekom Austria) and alternative carriers. Number portability is available, meaning that a subscriber may retain their geographic number even if they switch to a different provider, but the number remains associated with the geographic location of Apetlon.

Usage and Services

The 2175 code is used exclusively for fixed-line (PSTN and VoIP) services. It is not assigned to mobile networks. Businesses and residents in Apetlon rely on this code for their landline communications. VoIP services that offer geographic numbers may also assign numbers with this code, but the service is still tied to the geographic location for emergency services routing.
