📍 Geographic Location of Ypane
Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction
The area code 275 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the district of Ypané, located in the Central Department of Paraguay. Ypané lies approximately 25 kilometers southeast of Asunción, the national capital, and forms part of the Gran Asunción metropolitan area. The code serves the urban and peri-urban zones of the district, including the city center and surrounding neighborhoods. As a geographic code, it identifies the physical location of the fixed-line subscriber within the national numbering plan.
Dialing Formats and Caller Instructions
For local callers within Paraguay, the number must be dialed in the national format: 0 275 XXX XXX, where the leading '0' is the national trunk prefix, '275' is the area code, and the subscriber number consists of six digits. For international callers, the number is dialed as +595 275 XXX XXX, where '+595' is the country calling code for Paraguay, and the leading '0' is omitted. For example, a local call to a Ypané landline would be dialed as 0275 123 456, while an international caller would dial +595 275 123 456.
Numbering and Overlay Considerations
Currently, there is no overlay code for Ypané; the 275 code is exclusively used for fixed-line services in this area. However, as part of Paraguay's telecommunications evolution, the National Communications Commission (CONATEL) has implemented number portability for fixed lines, allowing subscribers to retain their numbers when changing service providers. This does not alter the geographic significance of the code.
Service Providers and Technology
Fixed-line services in Ypané are primarily provided by the state-owned operator Copaco and a few private operators. These lines are connected via the public switched telephone network (PSTN) and increasingly support VoIP technology, enabling high-quality voice and data services. The code is not assigned to mobile networks, which use distinct non-geographic prefixes such as 0961, 0971, 0981, and 0991.
Practical Information for Callers
When calling Ypané from abroad, ensure you have the correct international access code for your country (e.g., 011 from the US, 00 from most European countries) before dialing Paraguay's country code. Be mindful of time zone differences (PYT, UTC-3). For emergency services, always dial the national emergency numbers (e.g., 911 for police, 132 for medical) rather than the geographic code.
