Overview of Area Code 2322
Area code 2322 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) within the Greek national numbering plan, assigned to the region of Nigrita and its surrounding municipalities in the Serres regional unit of Central Macedonia. This code is used for fixed-line (PSTN) services, and it is administered by the Hellenic Telecommunications and Post Commission (EETT) in accordance with ITU-T E.164 recommendations.
Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction
The 2322 code covers the town of Nigrita and the broader area of the former province of Visaltia, including communities such as Terpni, Mavrothalassa, and parts of the Strymon River valley. Administratively, these areas fall under the Region of Central Macedonia, with local governance provided by the Municipality of Visaltia (since the 2011 Kallikratis reform). The region is known for its agricultural production, particularly rice and cereals, and is situated approximately 20 kilometers southwest of the city of Serres.
Dialing Formats and Caller Instructions
For callers within Greece, the local dialing format requires dialing the trunk prefix 0 followed by the area code and the subscriber number: 0 2322 XXXX XXX (where X represents the 7-digit local number). For international callers, the format is: +30 2322 XXXX XXX (or 0030 2322 XXXX XXX from countries using the international prefix 00). Note that the leading 0 is omitted when dialing from abroad.
Example: A local number in Nigrita might be 2322 40 000. To call this from Athens, you would dial 0 2322 40 000. From the United States, you would dial 011 30 2322 40 000.
Numbering Structure and Overlays
Greek fixed-line numbers using the 2322 code consist of 10 digits in total, including the leading trunk prefix 0. The subscriber number length is 7 digits, and the NDC (2322) is 4 digits. As of now, there are no overlay codes in this area, and the code is exclusively used for geographic fixed-line services. However, number portability allows subscribers to retain their numbers when switching between fixed-line operators, so the code does not necessarily indicate the current service provider.
Service and Usage Notes
This area code is primarily used for residential and business fixed-line telephony, as well as for internet access via DSL or fiber-optic connections. Calls to this code from mobile phones are charged at rates determined by the caller's mobile plan, typically higher than on-net fixed-line calls. Emergency services (112) and directory assistance (11888) are accessible without the area code.
