  • Local call within Tulln (if using legacy fixed-line): 123456 (though 10-digit dialing is now standard for all calls within Austria)

Regulatory and Technical Notes

As of 2025, Austria has fully implemented 10-digit dialing (including the leading '0') for all calls within the country, meaning that even local calls require the full national number. The area code 2272 is part of the Telekom-Control-Kommission numbering plan and is administered by the Austrian Regulatory Authority for Broadcasting and Telecommunications (RTR). Number portability is available, so a fixed-line number with this prefix may be served by any operator, but the geographic allocation remains tied to the Tulln exchange area.

For callers from outside Austria, the country code +43 must be used, and the leading '0' of the national prefix is dropped. The cost of calling this number depends on the caller's telecom provider and the destination type (fixed-line). Calls from mobile phones may be subject to higher rates, and international rates vary by carrier.

Businesses and residents in Tulln often use this code for customer service lines, and it is important for international partners to recognize that this is a geographic number, not a toll-free or premium-rate service.
