Area Code 413 – Uden

Overview of Area Code +31 413

Area code +31 413 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) within the Netherlands' national numbering plan, assigned to the municipality of Uden and its surrounding areas in the province of North Brabant. This code is used for fixed-line (PSTN) services and follows the ITU-T E.164 international dialing standard. The geographic coverage includes the town of Uden itself, as well as nearby localities such as Volkel, Odiliapeel, and Zeeland (North Brabant). The administrative jurisdiction falls under the municipality of Maashorst, which was formed in 2022 by merging Uden and Landerd.

Dialing Formats

For callers within the Netherlands, the national trunk prefix 0 must be dialed before the area code, followed by the subscriber number. The complete national format is 0413-XXXXXXX, where the subscriber number typically consists of 6 or 7 digits, resulting in a total national significant number length of 9 or 10 digits (excluding the trunk prefix). For international callers, the country code +31 replaces the leading zero, and the number is dialed as +31 413 XXXXXXX. For example, a local number in Uden might be dialed as 0413-123456 domestically or +31 413 123456 from abroad.

Local and International Calling Instructions

When calling from a fixed or mobile phone within the Netherlands to a number in the 413 area, you must always include the trunk prefix and area code, even if you are calling from within the same locality. This is standard practice across the Dutch numbering plan. For international callers, the process is straightforward: dial the international access code (e.g., 00 from most European countries, or 011 from North America), then the Netherlands country code 31, followed by the area code 413 without the leading zero, and finally the subscriber number.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest ITU-T and national regulatory updates, there is no overlay code for the 413 area. The code is exclusively assigned to the Uden region, and no other NDC overlays this geographic area. However, number portability is available in the Netherlands, meaning that a subscriber may retain their 413 number even if they move to a different geographic region, provided they stay with the same service provider. This is an important consideration when identifying the physical location of a caller, as the number may no longer correspond to the original geographic area.

For businesses and residents in the Uden area, using the 413 code reinforces a local presence and can be beneficial for local customer trust. For international callers, it is essential to use the correct international format to avoid misdialing. Always verify the complete number, as the subscriber number length can vary.
