The code follows the ITU-T E.164 international numbering standard, where +375 is the country calling code for Belarus, and 1631 serves as the national destination code (NDC) for this specific administrative area.

Dialing Formats and Instructions
For local callers within Belarus (excluding Kamenets), the national trunk prefix 0 is used before the area code.

From mobile phones within Belarus, the same format applies: 8 01631 XXX-XX. For international callers, the format is: +375 1631 XXX-XX (or 011 375 1631 XXX-XX from North America). The local subscriber number typically consists of 5 to 6 digits, making the total national significant number (NSN) length 9 digits (excluding the trunk prefix).
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
Currently, there is no overlay code for the Kamenets area; the +375 1631 code is the sole geographic code for this district. As with other Belarusian fixed-line codes, number portability is available within the country, allowing subscribers to retain their numbers when switching between fixed-line operators, though the geographic significance remains tied to the original location. When dialing from a foreign country, callers must replace the international access prefix (e.g., 00 from most European countries) with the + sign, followed by the country code, area code, and subscriber number. It is important to omit the leading trunk prefix 0 when dialing from abroad.
