📍 Geographic Location of Varėna

Overview of Area Code +370 310

The telephone area code 310 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) within the Lithuanian national numbering plan, assigned to the town of Varėna and its surrounding district in the southern part of the country. Varėna is the administrative center of the Varėna District Municipality, located in Alytus County, near the borders with Belarus. The code serves both fixed-line PSTN subscribers and, in some cases, VoIP services that are registered to the geographic area.

Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction

The 310 area code covers the urban area of Varėna and the villages within the Varėna district, including localities such as Senoji Varėna, Matuizos, and Valkininkai. The region is characterized by its forested landscape and proximity to the Dzūkija National Park. As a geographic code, it is tied to the physical location of the subscriber's line, and the tariff structure is typically based on the caller's location.

Dialing Formats and Instructions

To call a fixed-line number in Varėna from within Lithuania, you must dial the trunk prefix 0, followed by the area code 310 and the subscriber's 6-digit local number. For example, if the local number is 54321, you would dial: 0 310 54321.

For international callers, the Lithuanian country code +370 replaces the trunk prefix. Thus, the same number would be dialed as +370 310 54321 from abroad. When dialing internationally, the leading '0' is omitted.

Local calls within the Varėna area may be made using only the 6-digit subscriber number if both parties are connected to the same local exchange, but it is recommended to use the full national format for clarity.

Numbering Plan and Overlays

Lithuania uses a closed numbering plan for fixed lines, meaning that the area code is an integral part of the national significant number. The total length of a national significant number for geographic numbers is 8 digits (excluding the trunk prefix), comprising the 3-digit area code (310) and a 6-digit subscriber number. Currently, there are no overlay codes for the 310 area; the code is exclusively assigned to the Varėna region.
