Dialing Codes: How To Call Belarus From Abroad

If you're looking to get in touch with someone in Belarus, you'll need to know the country's dialling code. Belarus's country code is +375, and it has been since 1995 when it replaced the +7 country code it inherited from the Soviet Union. To call Belarus from another country, you'll need to dial your exit country code, followed by Belarus's country code and the relevant area code, and then the local number.

Belarus country code: +375

To call anywhere internationally, you need to dial an exit code, a country code, and then the local phone number. The exit code depends on the country you are calling from. For example, the exit code for the United States is 011. The country code for Belarus is +375, which was established in 1995, replacing the +7 country code inherited from the Soviet Union.

To call a Belarusian phone number from the United States, you would dial 011 +375 and then the local number. The local number includes the area code and the phone number. For example, if you are calling a landline in Minsk, you would dial 011 +375 and then the 9-digit local number. When calling a Belarusian mobile phone, you often don't need the leading "0" in the area code.

The first 2 digits of a Belarusian phone number can be: 25, 29, 33, or 44. Belarusian area codes are 2-3 digits long and are followed by a 6-7 digit local number.

Belarusian phone numbers follow the format:

Exit code + 375 + XX + XXXXXXX

Or

Exit code + 375 + XXXXXXX

International calling format: 011-375

To make an international call to Belarus from, for example, the United States, you need to dial the international calling format: 011-375. This is because every country has a specific code used for international calls. In the United States, this is "011", whereas in the United Kingdom, for example, the exit code is "00". You can easily find your country's exit code online.

Belarus's country code is +375, which has been in use since 1995, replacing the +7 country code inherited from the Soviet Union. To call a specific location in Belarus, you will need to dial the exit code of your country, followed by the country code of Belarus, and then the specific area code of the location you are calling.

For example, if you are calling a landline in Minsk from the United States, you would dial 011-375, followed by the 9-digit phone number. When calling a mobile phone in Belarus, you often don't need the leading "0" in the area code.

It is important to note that international calls can be more expensive than domestic calls. It is recommended to check with your phone provider about their rates for international calls before placing such a call. Additionally, consider the time difference between your location and Belarus before making the call.

Calling within Belarus: dial the trunk prefix, then 0

To call someone within Belarus, you need to dial the trunk prefix and then 0. This is because, in 2003, the abbreviated dialling within a single area code was replaced with a full 9-digit number + 2-digit trunk prefix.

Belarus's trunk prefix is 8. So, to call someone within Belarus, you need to dial 80. This is followed by the area code, region code, and local number. The full number you will dial will look something like this: 80~AARRnn-nnn, where AA is the area code, RR is the region code, and nn-nnn is the local number.

Belarus's country code is +375. This is the code you will need to dial if you are calling Belarus from another country. If you are calling from the US or Canada, you will need to dial 011 first, followed by 375.

Belarus's phone numbers are 9 digits long. If you are calling a mobile phone in Belarus, you often don't need to dial the leading "0" in the area code.

Calling a Belarusian mobile from abroad: omit the leading 0 in the area code

To call a Belarusian mobile phone from abroad, you will need to dial your country's exit code, followed by the country code for Belarus and the relevant area code and phone number.

The country code for Belarus is +375. This replaced the +7 country code used during the Soviet Union in 1995.

When calling a Belarusian mobile from abroad, omit the leading 0 in the area code. For example, if the number you are calling is 0456 5555 1234, you would dial: Exit code + 375 + 456 5555 1234.

Exit codes vary by country. For example, the exit code for the US is 011, so a call to a Belarusian mobile from the US would be: 011 + 375 + 456 5555 1234.
