Area Code 3322 – Dunkwa

Geographic Overview

The +233 3322 dialing prefix is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Dunkwa-on-Offin area in the Central Region of Ghana. This code covers Dunkwa-on-Offin, the capital of the Upper Denkyira East Municipal District, and its surrounding towns and villages, including Diaso, Gyaman, and Ayanfuri. The region is known for its gold mining operations and agricultural activities, with Dunkwa serving as a commercial hub for the central-western part of Ghana.

Dialing Formats

When calling a fixed-line number in Dunkwa from within Ghana, subscribers must dial the trunk prefix '0' followed by the NDC '3322' and the subscriber's 5-digit local number. The complete national format is 0 3322 XXX XX. For example, a local number might be dialed as 03322 12345.

For international callers, the number must be dialed in the full E.164 international format: the Ghana country code +233, followed by the NDC without the leading '0', and the subscriber number. Thus, the international format becomes +233 3322 XXX XX. For instance, +233 3322 12345.

Caller Instructions

• Local callers (within Ghana): Dial the national format: 0 3322 XXX XX.
• International callers: Dial your country's exit code (e.g., 00 or 011), then 233, then 3322, and the 5-digit local number. Do not include the leading '0'.

Technical Considerations

This is a fixed-line (PSTN) code, primarily served by traditional copper lines and increasingly by fixed wireless and VoIP services. As of the current numbering plan, there is no overlay code for Dunkwa; the 3322 code is unique to this geographic area. Subscribers may have their numbers migrated to VoIP infrastructure, but the geographic NDC remains unchanged, preserving the association with the Dunkwa area. Calls to this prefix are typically charged at standard national or international rates, depending on the caller's location and tariff plan.
