The code 152 serves the city itself and the surrounding suburban areas within the Grodno District.

Dialing Procedures
- International calls to Grodno: Dial the international access prefix (e.g., 00 from most European countries), followed by the Belarus country code 375, then the area code 152 (without the leading zero), and the seven-digit subscriber number. Example: 00 375 152 1234567.
- Domestic calls within Belarus: From any fixed or mobile phone in Belarus, dial 8 (the intercity trunk prefix), then 0152, and the seven-digit subscriber number. Example: 8 0152 1234567.
- Local calls within Grodno: When calling a fixed-line number in the same area code, you may dial only the seven-digit subscriber number. However, some legacy exchanges may still require the full domestic format; it is advisable to check with your service provider.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
As of the latest updates, there is no overlay code for Grodno; the area code 152 remains the sole geographic code for the city. The subscriber number range is sufficient to meet the current demand. However, with the growth of VoIP and mobile services, the distinction between geographic and non-geographic numbers has become more fluid. Calls to 152 numbers are typically routed over the PSTN, but they may also be delivered to VoIP-based fixed-line services, depending on the operator.
Caller Instructions
For foreign callers, it is essential to replace the leading zero of the area code with the country code. For example, a caller from the United States would dial 011 375 152 1234567. Callers from within Belarus should always use the trunk prefix 8 when dialing from a different area code. Mobile users in Belarus can also dial the domestic format directly. Ensure you have the correct seven-digit subscriber number, as omitting the area code when calling from outside Grodno will result in a failed call.
