📍 Geographic Location of Taiz
Geographic Overview
The +967 4841 prefix is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Taiz governorate in the Republic of Yemen. Taiz is a major urban and industrial center located in the southwestern highlands of the country, approximately 200 km south of the capital Sana'a. The code covers the city of Taiz and its surrounding districts, including Al-Mudhaffar, Al-Qahirah, and Salh. As a fixed-line service, 4841 is used for traditional PSTN connections, as well as some fixed wireless and VoIP services that are allocated geographic numbers.
Dialing Format
When calling a Taiz landline from within Yemen, subscribers must dial the trunk prefix 0, followed by the NDC 4841 and the subscriber's 6-digit local number. For example, a local number such as 123456 would be dialed as 04841123456 from within Yemen. From abroad, callers must use the international access code (typically 00 or +), then Yemen's country code 967, followed by the NDC without the leading zero: +967 4841 123456. It is important to note that the total number length after the country code is 9 digits (NDC + subscriber number), conforming to ITU-T E.164 guidelines.
Caller Instructions
- Local callers within Taiz may sometimes use abbreviated dialing for on-net calls, but for reliability, always use the full national format with the trunk prefix.
- International callers should replace the leading zero with the +967 country code. Ensure you have the correct local number, as omitting digits will result in a failed call.
- Mobile callers in Yemen can dial the full national number (04841xxxxxx) to reach a Taiz landline.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
Yemen's numbering plan does not currently employ overlay codes for geographic areas; each governorate has a distinct NDC. However, due to network expansion, some new fixed lines in Taiz may be assigned under alternative codes if the 4841 capacity is exhausted. Always verify the correct NDC with the called party or a reliable directory. The Public Telecommunications Corporation (PTC) manages the national numbering plan, and number portability is not widely available for fixed lines, so the prefix generally indicates the geographic location of the line.
