Regulatory and Technical Notes
Geographic numbers in Greece are regulated by the Hellenic Telecommunications and Post Commission (EETT). The 2236 area code is allocated for fixed-line services, typically provided by OTE (the incumbent) and alternative operators. Number portability allows subscribers to retain their geographic number when switching providers, but the number remains associated with the geographic location. As of recent years, there have been no overlay codes for this area, meaning the 2236 code is exclusively used for Makrakomi and its environs. Calls to this area are charged at standard national fixed-line rates when dialed from other Greek fixed lines, while mobile and international rates vary by operator.
