Overview of Greek Mobile Prefix 695
The prefix 695 is a non-geographic mobile network code within the Greek national numbering plan, governed by the Hellenic Telecommunications and Post Commission (EETT) under ITU-T E.164 guidelines. Numbers beginning with 695 are allocated to mobile network operators (MNOs) and mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) operating in Greece. Unlike geographic area codes, 695 does not correspond to a specific city or region; it is a national mobile identifier, meaning subscribers can be located anywhere in the country and retain their number when moving.
Format and Dialing Procedures
Greek mobile numbers consist of ten digits in total, including the leading '6'. The prefix 695 is followed by seven additional digits, yielding the format 695 XXX XXXX. When dialing from within Greece, callers must dial the full ten-digit number, including the leading '6' (e.g., 695 123 4567). From abroad, the international format requires the country code +30, followed by the ten-digit mobile number without the trunk prefix '0' (Greece uses '0' for domestic trunk calls, but it is not used in international dialing). Thus, an international caller would dial +30 695 123 4567.
Numbering Plan and Allocation
The Greek numbering plan assigns mobile prefixes starting with 69X to mobile services. Specific prefixes are allocated to individual operators; for example, 690 and 695 are associated with certain providers, but due to mobile number portability (MNP), a number's prefix no longer guarantees the original operator. Subscribers may have ported their number to another network, so the prefix is not a reliable indicator of the current service provider. This is an important consideration for businesses and individuals when routing calls or sending SMS messages.
Usage and Routing
Numbers under 695 are used for voice calls, SMS, MMS, and mobile data services. They support standard GSM/UMTS/LTE/5G technologies. Calls to 695 numbers are routed through the Greek mobile network, and termination charges apply. For international callers, rates vary depending on their home country's operator and any applicable roaming agreements. It is also common for Greek mobile numbers to be used for two-factor authentication (2FA) and other verification services, though users should be aware of potential roaming charges when traveling abroad.
Regulatory and Practical Notes
The Greek regulator EETT oversees the allocation and management of numbering resources. Mobile numbers are considered a scarce national resource and are allocated to licensed operators. Users must provide accurate personal information when activating a 695 number, as Greek law requires SIM card registration. For businesses, using 695 numbers can be part of a mobile marketing strategy, but it is essential to comply with local data protection regulations (GDPR) and consumer protection rules regarding unsolicited communications.
