Area Code 3436 – Tysmenytsia, Ivano-Frankivsk

Overview of Area Code +380 3436

Area code +380 3436 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the town of Tysmenytsia and its surrounding rural areas within the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast (province) of Ukraine. This code is part of the national numbering plan administered by the Ukrainian State Centre of Radio Frequencies (UCRF) under the framework of ITU-T E.164. The region is located in the western part of Ukraine, approximately 15 kilometers southeast of the regional capital Ivano-Frankivsk. Tysmenytsia serves as the administrative center of the Tysmenytsia Raion (district), and the code covers the town itself, adjacent villages, and the broader district territory.

Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction

The +380 3436 area code is allocated to the Tysmenytsia district, which includes the town of Tysmenytsia and numerous smaller settlements. The district is bordered by Ivano-Frankivsk Raion to the north, and other raions of the oblast. The region is predominantly rural, with agriculture and light industry forming the economic base. The code is used for fixed-line telephone services, including both residential and business subscribers connected to the local PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network). As with all geographic codes in Ukraine, the allocation is tied to the physical location of the telephone line, and the code is not portable to other regions.

Dialing Formats and Instructions

To call a fixed-line subscriber in Tysmenytsia, the following formats apply:

• National dialing (within Ukraine): Dial 0 3436 XXX XX. The leading 0 is the trunk prefix used for domestic calls. The total number of subscriber digits after the area code is typically 5 or 6, depending on the local numbering capacity. For example, a local number might be 2 34 56, making the full national number 0 3436 23456.
• International dialing (from abroad): Dial +380 3436 XXX XX (or 00 380 3436 ... depending on the international prefix of the originating country). The +380 is the country code for Ukraine, and the area code is used without the leading 0.
• Local calls within the same area code: In many cases, local calls can be made using only the subscriber number, but this depends on the operator's dialing plan. For clarity, it is recommended to always use the full national format.

For example, a typical number in Tysmenytsia might be +380 3436 23456. When calling from Kyiv, you would dial 0 3436 23456. When calling from the United States, you would dial 011 380 3436 23456.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest updates, there is no overlay code for the Tysmenytsia area. The area code 3436 is the sole NDC for this geographic region. However, subscribers in the region may have access to alternative numbering services, such as VoIP or mobile, but those are non-geographic and not tied to this code. The Ukrainian numbering plan is closed, meaning that all national numbers, including geographic ones, have a fixed length of 9 digits after the trunk prefix 0 (excluding the trunk prefix itself). Thus, the total length of a national significant number (NSN) is 9 digits: the area code (4 digits) plus the subscriber number (5 digits). In practice, some subscriber numbers may have 6 digits, but the total NSN remains 9 digits by using shorter area codes; however, for 3436, the subscriber number is 5 digits.

Caller Instructions

For callers within Ukraine, always use the trunk prefix 0 when dialing from a different area code. For callers from abroad, replace the trunk prefix with the international access code (e.g., 00 or +) and then the country code 380. It is important to note that when dialing from a mobile phone in Ukraine, you can use either the full national format (starting with 0) or the international format (+380), but the latter is often preferred for clarity. For international callers, the plus sign (+) is the universal international prefix, and the call will be routed correctly regardless of the country of origin.
