Overlay and Regulatory Notes
As of the latest ITU-T E.164 assignment for Austria, there is no overlay code for the 4224 area. The numbering plan is administered by the Austrian Regulatory Authority for Broadcasting and Telecommunications (RTR-GmbH). Number portability is available for geographic numbers, meaning that a subscriber may retain their 4224 number even if they move to a different provider, but the number remains tied to the geographic location for routing purposes. This code is exclusively for fixed-line PSTN and VoIP services; it is not used for mobile services, which use separate non-geographic prefixes such as 0664, 0676, etc.
