List of Telex Destination Codes (TDC) and
Telex Network Identification Codes (TNIC)
Notes from TSB
1.
By TSB Circular 80 of 3 June 1994, TSB announced the approval of ITU-T
Recommendation F.69 (06/1994), in accordance with Resolution No. 1, Section 8, of the WTSC
(Helsinki, 1993). Consequently, TSB prepared a list of Telex Destination Codes (TDC) and the
corresponding Telex Network Identification Codes (TNIC), which are allocated in accordance with
ITU-T Recommendation F.68 (11/1988). This list, based on Annex A to ITU-T Recommendation F.69 as published in the Blue Book (Volume II – Fascicle II.4 – pages 142 to 145),
incorporates the changes of codes or designations of names of countries/geographical areas.
2.
The new list, annexed to ITU Operational Bulletin No. 978 of 15 April 2011, replaces the
previous one. In addition, the two-letter telegram network codes, referring to paragraph 7.3 of
ITU-T Recommendation F.32 (10/1995), corresponding to one-letter telex network identification
codes and countries or geographical areas for which information regarding cessation of telex
service has been published in ITU Operational Bulletin (No.), are appended to this list.
3.
In the interests of keeping the list up to date, administrations/ROAs are requested to check
the accuracy of the information it contains and to inform TSB of any changes which should be
made for its updating (Fax: +41 22 730 5853, or E-mail: tsbtson@itu.int). Changes will be
published in the following ITU Operational Bulletin as Amendments to the list.
4.
Furthermore, the information contained in this Annex to ITU Operational Bulletin No. 978 is
also available on the ITU web page www.itu.int/itu-t/bulletin/annex.html .
5.
The designations employed and the presentation of material in this list do not imply the
expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of ITU concerning the legal status of any country
or geographical area, or of its authorities.
