Overview
The German area code 02622 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the town of Bendorf am Rhein and its immediate surroundings in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate (Rheinland-Pfalz). Bendorf is located on the right bank of the Rhine, approximately 7 kilometers north of Koblenz, and forms part of the Middle Rhine region. The code is administered by the German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur) and is used for fixed-line (PSTN) and VoIP services that are registered to this geographic area.
Geographic Coverage
The 02622 numbering area encompasses the urban area of Bendorf and several adjacent localities, including Sayn, Mülhofen, and Stromberg. It also covers parts of the neighboring municipalities of Vallendar and Weitersburg in certain allocations. The code is distinct from the larger Koblenz area code (0261) and the Montabaur code (02602), which serve different administrative districts.
Dialing Formats
When dialing from within Germany, callers must use the national trunk prefix 0 before the area code. For example, to call a Bendorf landline number, you would dial:
- 02622 123456 (national format)
From outside Germany, the international access code (typically 00 or +) is used, followed by the German country code 49, and then the area code without the leading zero. Thus, the same number would be dialed as:
- +49 2622 123456 (international format)
Local calls within the 02622 area may be made using only the subscriber number (without the area code) in many cases, but this depends on the specific carrier and local dialing regulations. For clarity, it is always safe to include the full area code.
Numbering and Overlays
German fixed-line numbers in this area typically have a length of 7 to 8 digits after the area code, depending on the number of subscribers and the allocation by the network operator. There is no overlay code in Bendorf; the area code 02622 is exclusive to this geographic region. However, number portability allows subscribers to retain their 02622 numbers even if they move to a different geographic location, as long as the service provider supports it. This means that a call to an 02622 number may not necessarily terminate in Bendorf if the number has been ported to a different region or to a mobile network.
Caller Instructions
For callers within Germany, dialing 02622 is straightforward. For international callers, ensure you use the correct exit code for your country (e.g., 011 from the US, 00 from most European countries) and omit the leading zero of the area code. Always verify the full number with the recipient, as subscriber numbers can vary in length.
