📍 Geographic Location of Szombathely
Geographic Overview
The +36 94 country/area code combination is assigned to the geographic region of Szombathely, the administrative seat of Vas County in western Hungary. This numbering area covers the city itself and its surrounding settlements, including key towns such as Körmend, Sárvár, and Őriszentpéter. As a geographic code, +36 94 routes calls to fixed-line telephony services within this specific part of the country, following the ITU-T E.164 international numbering standard.
Dialing Formats
For callers within Hungary, the national trunk prefix '06' is used, followed by the area code and the subscriber's six-digit local number. The complete national format is 06 94 XXX XXX. For international callers, the format is +36 94 XXX XXX (or 0036 94 XXX XXX when using the international access prefix). It is important to omit the leading '0' of the national trunk prefix when dialing from abroad.
Caller Instructions
- Local callers within the Szombathely area may be able to dial the six-digit subscriber number directly, depending on the specific local dialing plan. However, for clarity and consistency, it is recommended to always use the full national format, especially when calling from mobile phones.
- Domestic long-distance callers from other Hungarian areas must dial 06 94 followed by the local number.
- International callers should dial their country's exit code (e.g., 00 or 011), then Hungary's country code 36, then 94, and finally the six-digit local number. Example: +36 94 123 456.
Numbering Plan Considerations
Hungary's geographic numbering plan is structured with a two-digit area code for Budapest (01) and for the rest of the country, area codes range from 22 to 99. The +36 94 area code is part of this plan and is not an overlay code; it is the sole geographic code for the Szombathely region. Subscriber numbers within this area are six digits long, making the total national significant number (NSN) length nine digits when including the area code. This structure is consistent with the Hungarian National Numbering Plan, which is administered by the National Media and Infocommunications Authority (NMHH).
As with all geographic codes in Hungary, number portability is available, meaning that a fixed-line subscriber may retain their number when switching providers within the same geographic area. However, the geographic significance of the code remains, and calls to +36 94 numbers are always charged as fixed-line calls to the Szombathely region.
