Number range observations
These records preserve ranges and patterns as documented by their cited sources. They are separate observations, not expanded number intervals or current dialing instructions. “Endpoints as recorded” describes separate source fields; it does not reconstruct a combined printed literal or connector. Numbering scope and length remain unspecified wherever the source does not establish them.
Range status: Needs review · Type: Service · Numbering scope: Not specified in source · Format: Single printed pattern
Source classifications, historical observations and locality labels do not establish final adoption, present-day assignment, subscriber location or current dialing instructions. Read source details and limitations.

These are source-bound observations. A source status or historical range is not confirmation of present-day assignment, reachability, carrier, subscriber, or caller location. Record and locality-association states are separate. Null dates mean not recorded; retrieval and review dates are not effective dates.

The 2018 assignment date, 2020 communication heading, 2022 return/reassignment event, and 2022 ITU posting date remain distinct source facts. No effective period, post-notice current operator, geographic classification, locality mapping, or present allocation is inferred.

- Dated ITU table row and subsequent source-stated notice, preserved as context only
The physical page 2 table, under Communication of 2.VII.2020, prints one row: Service “Mobile Telephony”; Operator “Sp/f Tosa”; Numbering series “+298 91xxxx”; Assignment date “2.XI.2018”. The exact pattern remains in sourceRecords and the maintained number-range observation, without endpoint derivation or a code anchor.
The physical page 1 communication headed 15.VIII.2022 reports that Sp/f Tosa handed back authorization and that +298 91xxxx was reassigned to P/F FT Samskifti on 15 August 2022 for GSM Mobile Services. The printed communication and stated event dates remain distinct; no inferred effective_to date or post-notice current status is asserted.
The literal plus sign, embedded space, and lowercase x placeholders are preserved exactly. The range domain and number length remain unknown; this observation is not geographic and has no locality association.

Supported calculations run from 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z until 2031-01-01T00:00:00Z. Zone names identify IANA representative locations; they do not locate a telephone number. The browser detects your device’s configured zone, which may differ from your physical location. Time rules: IANA tzdb 2026e. Location labels use its retained country tables. Times use the selected IANA entry; they are not a claim about every location in the country. The initial selection is a starting point; it does not confirm the capital’s time, country-wide time, or your location.
