📍 Geographic Location of Bijelo Polje/Mojkovac

Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction

The Montenegrin area code 50 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the northern region of the country, specifically serving the municipalities of Bijelo Polje and Mojkovac. This allocation follows the ITU-T E.164 numbering plan, ensuring that each geographic area has a unique code for routing calls within the PSTN. The code covers the urban centers and surrounding rural areas, with Bijelo Polje being the largest town in the region and an important economic and cultural hub.

Dialing Formats

For callers within Montenegro, the national trunk prefix 0 must be dialed before the area code, followed by the subscriber's local number. The complete national format is: 0 50 XXX XXX (where X represents the local digits). For international callers, the country calling code +382 replaces the trunk prefix, resulting in the international format: +382 50 XXX XXX. It is essential to omit the leading zero when dialing from abroad.

Example: A local number in Bijelo Polje might be 0 50 123 456 domestically, while international callers would dial +382 50 123 456.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

Currently, there is no overlay code for the 50 area; the region uses a single geographic code. Subscriber numbers within this area typically consist of six digits, making the total national significant number (NSN) length eight digits (including the area code). This structure is consistent with Montenegro's national numbering plan, which was last revised to accommodate the country's telecommunications growth.

Caller Instructions

  • Local callers within Montenegro must always dial the trunk prefix 0 before the area code, even if calling from a nearby region. For example, to call a fixed line in Bijelo Polje from Podgorica, dial 0 50 XXX XXX.
  • International callers should replace the trunk prefix with the country code +382. Thus, from any country, dial +382 50 XXX XXX.
  • When using a mobile phone within Montenegro, it is also necessary to include the trunk prefix (0) when dialing a landline in this area, unless the caller is using the +382 international format.

Regulatory and Technical Notes

The numbering resources are administered by the Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services (EKIP) of Montenegro. As with all geographic codes, the 50 area is primarily used for fixed-line services, but number portability allows subscribers to retain their numbers when changing operators, provided the service remains at the same geographic location. This ensures that the geographic significance of the code is maintained.
