Area Code 7664 – Weyregg am Attersee

Geographic Overview

The Austrian area code +43 7664 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the fixed-line telephone network of Weyregg am Attersee, a municipality located in the district of Vöcklabruck in the federal state of Upper Austria (Oberösterreich). This code serves the town itself and the surrounding communities along the eastern shore of Lake Attersee, including the localities of Weyregg, Steinbach, and parts of the Attergau region. The administrative jurisdiction falls under the Austrian Regulatory Authority for Broadcasting and Telecommunications (RTR-GmbH), which allocates geographic numbering resources based on the traditional Austrian numbering plan.

Primary Cities and Coverage

The +43 7664 prefix covers Weyregg am Attersee and its immediate vicinity, which is a popular tourist destination known for its scenic lakeside setting. The code is used for fixed-line services, including PSTN and VoIP connections that are registered to a physical address within the exchange area. The largest nearby urban center is Vöcklabruck, approximately 20 kilometers to the north, but Vöcklabruck uses a different area code (+43 7672).

Dialing Formats

For local callers within Austria, the national trunk prefix 0 is used before the area code. The full national format is 0 7664 followed by the subscriber number, which typically consists of 5 to 7 digits. For example, a local number might be dialed as 07664 12345.

For international callers, the country code +43 replaces the leading zero, and the area code is dialed without the trunk prefix. The international format is +43 7664 followed by the subscriber number. For instance, a caller from abroad would dial +43 7664 12345.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the current numbering plan, there is no overlay code for the Weyregg am Attersee area; the 7664 code is exclusive to this geographic region. Subscriber numbers within this code are not portable to other geographic areas, but they may be ported to alternative service providers (e.g., cable or VoIP providers) while retaining the geographic number, subject to Austrian number portability regulations.

Caller Instructions

• Local callers within Austria must always dial the trunk prefix 0 when calling from a different fixed-line or mobile network. For example, from Vienna, dial 07664 12345.
• International callers should dial their international access code (e.g., 00 from most European countries, 011 from North America) followed by 43 7664 and the subscriber number. For example, from the US, dial 011 43 7664 12345.
• When calling from a mobile phone within Austria, the same national format applies: 07664 12345.

This geographic code is part of Austria's closed numbering plan, meaning that all digits must be dialed, including the area code, even for calls within the same local area.
