Regulatory and Technical Notes
Montenegro's numbering plan follows the ITU-T E.164 recommendation. The area code 41 is a geographic code, meaning that the tariff for calls to these numbers is typically based on the distance or the fixed-line network of the operator. As of recent years, Montenegro has implemented number portability, allowing subscribers to retain their numbers when changing operators, but the geographic significance of the prefix remains for routing purposes. Overlays have not been introduced for this area, so the 41 code is exclusive to the Cetinje region.
For businesses and residents in Cetinje, the 41 code is an essential part of their identity, often used in official communications. When providing contact details to international clients, it is crucial to present the number in the correct international format to avoid dialing errors.
