Regulatory and Technical Notes
As with all geographic numbers in Austria, the prefix is administered by the Rundfunk und Telekom Regulierungs-GmbH (RTR) and is allocated to local fixed-line operators. Number portability applies, so a subscriber may retain their number even if they switch providers, but the geographic association remains tied to the original location. Calls to Austrian geographic numbers are typically charged based on the caller's own tariff plan; there are no special premium or toll-free implications. For emergency services, callers should always dial the national emergency numbers 112 (European emergency) or 133 (police) and 144 (ambulance), which are independent of the area code.
