Dialing Formats
National dialing (within Austria): To call a local number from another Austrian fixed or mobile line, dial 0 4226 followed by the subscriber's 6- or 7-digit local number. For example, a local number might be 12345, so you would dial 0 4226 12345.
International dialing (from outside Austria): Replace the leading zero with the Austrian country code +43. Thus, the same number would be dialed as +43 4226 12345.
Local calls within the same area code: In many Austrian fixed-line areas, you may be able to dial just the local subscriber number without the area code when calling within the same exchange. However, due to number portability and the increasing use of VoIP, it is always safer to dial the full national number (including the 0) to ensure proper routing.
