How to read a number

97Prefix
In OCECPR's numbering-plan lookup IRIS, blocks starting with 9 are classed as mobile: 94 is Cablenet, 96 is Epic, 97 and 99 are CYTA; 95 was allocated to PrimeTel in the numbering plan notified to the ITU in 2021. 97 is registered to Cyta. Numbers are portable, so a range only tells you who it was first given to.

Carriers & prefixes

Mobile prefixes by carrier.

Number portability applies — a prefix only shows the original carrier.

Porting rules in full

Cyprus introduced number portability on 12 July 2004, covering mobile numbers, landline numbers within the same area and non-geographic numbers, on the basis of Article 75 of Law 112(I)/2004. The current rules are the 2017 Number Portability (Electronic Communications) Order (K.D.P. 64/2017), which merged earlier orders and simplified the process, amended twice in 2018. We haven't confirmed a deadline from the order's text, so none is given.

OCECPR offers a public numbering-plan lookup, IRIS (iris.cy), that shows who any block was originally allocated to.

  • Cyta Mobile carrier
