  • International callers: Replace the trunk prefix '0' with the country code +224. Do not add any extra digits or symbols after the country code.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest ITU-T E.164 national numbering plan, Guinea has not implemented overlay codes for geographic areas. The prefix 3094 is exclusively assigned to Macenta and does not share the area with other geographic codes. However, the rapid expansion of mobile and VoIP services may lead to future regulatory changes, so it is advisable to verify the current dialing procedures with the local telecom authority (ARPT) if you encounter issues.

Macenta's geographic code is distinct from mobile prefixes, which are non-geographic and begin with digits like 6 or 7. When dialing, ensure you are using the correct prefix to avoid misrouting.
