📍 Geographic Location of Wormeldange
Geographic Overview
The +352 2776 prefix is a geographic numbering resource assigned to the Wormeldange area in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Wormeldange is a commune located in the canton of Grevenmacher, in the eastern part of the country, along the Moselle River. This region is known for its vineyards and wine production. The prefix serves the administrative and residential telephony needs of the commune and its surrounding localities.
Dialing Formats
Within Luxembourg, calls to numbers using the 2776 prefix are dialed as a single national significant number: 2776 xx xx. The national dialing format does not require a trunk prefix like '0', as is common in many other countries. For international callers, the full E.164 format must be used: +352 2776 xx xx. When dialing from abroad, the leading '+' indicates the international access code, and the country code 352 is followed by the national significant number without any leading zero.
Numbering Plan Considerations
Luxembourg's national numbering plan is closed, meaning that all geographic numbers, including those under 2776, have a fixed length of 9 digits (including the country code). The prefix 2776 is allocated as a National Destination Code (NDC) for the Wormeldange exchange area. As with all geographic numbers in Luxembourg, these are tied to a physical location and are typically used for fixed-line PSTN services. However, number portability allows subscribers to retain their 2776 numbers when switching providers, even if they move outside the geographic area, though this is less common for fixed lines.
Caller Instructions
For local callers within Luxembourg, simply dial the 9-digit number starting with 2776. For international callers, always use the plus sign (+) followed by the country code 352 and the subscriber number, omitting any leading zeros. Ensure that you have the correct international exit code if dialing from a landline without a plus key.
Regulatory and Technical Notes
The Institut Luxembourgeois de Régulation (ILR) oversees the allocation and management of numbering resources in Luxembourg. The 2776 prefix is part of the geographic numbering plan, and its use is subject to the national regulatory framework. As Luxembourg transitions to all-IP networks, traditional PSTN services are increasingly delivered over VoIP, but the geographic significance of the prefix remains for numbering and emergency services routing.
