Area Code 4562 – Rokitne, Kyiv

Geographic Overview

The +380 4562 area code is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the fixed-line telephone network serving the town of Rokytne (also transliterated as Rokytne) and its surrounding administrative district in the Kyiv Oblast (Kyiv region) 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 Recommendation E.164. The geographic coverage area is situated in the central part of Ukraine, approximately 100 kilometers south of the capital city, Kyiv. The primary exchange serves Rokytne's urban settlement and the adjacent rural communities, providing PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) services to residential and business subscribers.

Dialing Formats and Instructions

For callers within Ukraine, the local dialing format requires the national trunk prefix '0' followed by the area code and the subscriber number. For example, to reach a landline in Rokytne from another Ukrainian city, you would dial: 0 4562 X XX XX. The complete national number comprises 9 digits after the trunk prefix (including the area code and the 5-digit subscriber number). For international callers, the format is: +380 4562 X XX XX (or 00380 4562 X XX XX from many European countries). When dialing locally within the same area code, the trunk prefix and area code may be omitted, but this practice is becoming less common with the introduction of overlay codes and number portability.

Regulatory and Technical Considerations

As a geographic code, the 4562 prefix is tied to a specific tariff zone and is used for fixed-line services. The Ukrainian regulator, the National Commission for the State Regulation of Electronic Communications, Radiofrequency Spectrum and the Provision of Postal Services (NKRZI), oversees the allocation of such codes to licensed operators. Subscribers in this area may have access to a range of services including ADSL, fiber-optic broadband, and VoIP, but the number itself remains associated with the geographic location for emergency services and caller identification purposes. Number portability within Ukraine allows subscribers to retain their numbers when changing operators, but geographic numbers are generally not portable outside the designated area.

Practical Guidance for Callers

When calling a Rokytne number from abroad, always replace the leading '0' of the national trunk prefix with the international access code and the country code +380. For example, a call from the United States to a subscriber number 12345 would be dialed as: 011 380 4562 12345. From a mobile phone, the plus sign (+) can be used in place of the international access code. It is advisable to verify the current dialing procedures with your telecom operator, as some networks may require additional digits for international calls. For local businesses, displaying numbers in international format (+380 4562...) is recommended to facilitate inbound calls from global clients.
