📍 Geographic Location of Kotabumi

Geographic Overview

The area code 724 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Kotabumi region in the province of Lampung, Indonesia. Kotabumi serves as the administrative capital of North Lampung Regency (Kabupaten Lampung Utara) and is a significant local economic hub.

The region is known for its agricultural production and is situated along the main Trans-Sumatra Highway, connecting it to Bandar Lampung and Palembang.

Dialing Formats

When calling a fixed-line number in Kotabumi, the national trunk prefix 0 is used within Indonesia, followed by the area code and the subscriber number. The subscriber number length in this region is typically 5 to 6 digits, resulting in a total national significant number (NSN) length of 8 to 9 digits (excluding the trunk prefix). For international callers, the country code +62 replaces the leading zero.

  • Local call (within Kotabumi): Dial the subscriber number directly (7-8 digits).
  • National call (from other Indonesian cities): Dial 0 724 followed by the subscriber number. Example: 0 724 12345.
  • International call (from abroad): Dial your country's exit code, then 62 724 followed by the subscriber number. Example: +62 724 12345.

Regulatory and Technical Notes

As with all Indonesian geographic area codes, the 724 prefix is administered by the Indonesian Telecommunication Regulatory Authority (BRTI) and allocated to fixed-line operators such as Telkom Indonesia. The code is geographic, meaning it is tied to a physical location. However, with the rise of VoIP and fixed wireless access, calls to 724 numbers may be routed over IP networks, but the numbering plan remains location-based. There are currently no overlay codes for Kotabumi, so the 724 code is the sole geographic identifier for the region. Callers should always verify the subscriber number length, as it may vary, and ensure they include the correct trunk prefix when dialing domestically.
