Overview of Area Code 786 (Amran, Yemen)
Area code 786 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Amran Governorate in the Republic of Yemen. Amran is located in the highlands of northwestern Yemen, approximately 50 kilometers north of the capital, Sana'a. The code serves the city of Amran and its surrounding districts, including rural communities and agricultural areas. As part of Yemen's national numbering plan, the code follows the ITU-T E.164 standard and is used for fixed-line (PSTN) services provided by the national incumbent operator, Yemen Public Telecommunications Corporation (PTC).
Dialing Formats
To call a fixed-line number in Amran from within Yemen, subscribers must dial the trunk prefix 0, followed by the area code 786 and the subscriber number (typically 6 to 7 digits). For example, a local number such as 123456 would be dialed as 0786 123456 from within Yemen. From abroad, callers must use the international access prefix (e.g., 00 or +), Yemen's country code +967, and then the area code 786 without the leading zero. Thus, the same number would be dialed as +967 786 123456.
Geographic Coverage and Administration
The Amran Governorate is administratively divided into several districts, including Amran City, Raydah, and Khamir. The 786 area code covers all fixed-line subscribers within these districts. As a geographic code, it is tied to the physical location of the telephone line, and calls are routed over the PSTN. The code is not portable to other regions; if a subscriber moves outside the Amran area, they must obtain a new number with the appropriate local area code.
