Caller Instructions
Local callers: If you are physically within the Rezina area and calling another fixed-line number in the same area, you may be able to dial only the six-digit subscriber number, depending on your telephone operator's local dialing rules. However, for clarity and consistency, it is recommended to always use the full national format (0 254 XX XX XX).

International callers: Dial your country's international access code (e.g., 011 from the US and Canada, 00 from most European countries), then Moldova's country code 373, followed by the area code 254 (without the leading 0) and the subscriber number. Example: 011 373 254 3 45 67.

Calls to geographic numbers are typically charged at standard fixed-line rates, which may vary depending on the operator and the time of day.
With the growth of VoIP and mobile services, geographic numbers like those in Rezina can be ported to other operators or technologies, but the area code remains indicative of the original geographic location. When calling from abroad, ensure you have the correct country code and omit the trunk prefix 0.
