Area Code 3134 – Solotvyno/Tyachiv, Zakarpattia

Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction

The area code +380 3134 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Solotvyno and Tyachiv districts within the Zakarpattia Oblast (Transcarpathian region) of Ukraine. This code serves the administrative territories of the urban-type settlement of Solotvyno and the city of Tyachiv, along with their surrounding villages. The region is located in the southwestern part of Ukraine, bordering Romania and Hungary, and is part of the historical Carpathian Ruthenia area. The code is managed by the Ukrainian State Centre of Radio Frequencies (UCRF) and allocated to fixed-line operators providing PSTN services in this mountainous region.

Dialing Formats and Caller Instructions

When calling a subscriber within the Solotvyno/Tyachiv area, the national (trunk) dialing format is 0 3134 XXX XX, where the leading '0' is the trunk prefix used within Ukraine. For international callers, the format is +380 3134 XXX XX (or 00380 3134 XXX XX from most countries). Subscribers in this area typically have six-digit local numbers (after the area code), resulting in a total national significant number length of 9 digits (excluding the trunk prefix).

For local calls within the same code, callers may dial the subscriber number directly without the area code in some exchanges, but it is recommended to use the full national format to avoid misrouting. When calling from a mobile phone within Ukraine, the trunk prefix '0' is still required, followed by the area code and number. International callers should replace the '+' with their country's international access code (e.g., '011' from the US, '00' from most European countries).

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest numbering plan updates, there is no overlay code for this geographic area. The code 3134 is dedicated solely to the Solotvyno/Tyachiv region. However, due to the increasing demand for telecommunication services, some subscribers may have been migrated to VoIP or mobile networks, but their numbers may retain the geographic code for porting purposes. In such cases, the call routing may not strictly follow the geographic location, but the number remains associated with the original tariff zone.

Practical Usage and Examples

For a business or resident in Solotvyno with a number 2 34 56, the complete international dialing format would be +380 3134 23456. A caller from Kyiv would dial 0 3134 23456. It is important to note that calls to this geographic code are typically charged at local or national rates depending on the caller's location and operator. For travelers, using a local SIM card or VoIP service can reduce costs.
