Overview

The telephone country code of Serbia is 381. Serbia and Montenegro received this country code following the breakup of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1992, which used country code 38. Montenegro switched to 382 after its independence in 2006.[2]

An example for calling telephones in Belgrade, Serbia is as follows:

  • xxx xx xx (telephone number in Serbia)
  • 011 xxx xx xx (house number in Belgrade)
  • +381 xx xxx xx xx (outside Serbia)

For domestic calls (within the country), 0 must be dialled before the area code.

For calls from Serbia, the prefix for international calls was 99, but was changed to 00 on 1 April 2008, in accordance to the recommendations of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and matching the majority of European countries.[3] (e.g. for a United States number 00 1 ... should be dialled).

Until 2013, Telekom Srbija had a monopoly on fixed telephony services. When the new regulation came in force, competition became allowed in this field as well, and other operators entered the market, using alternative communication infrastructure:

  • Orion Telekom – over CDMA
  • SBB – over coaxial cable (cable TV infrastructure)
  • Yettel Serbia – offering services only to business customers

Calling codes in the table are assigned to new customers by the respective provider. However, since 2011 customers can change the operator and retain the old calling code (along with the rest of the phone number). Thus, calling codes do not necessarily reflect the operator. It is not possible, however, to transfer a mobile number to a land-based operator and vice versa.

Special codes

The following special telephone numbers are valid across the country:
