Area Code 5152 – Domanivka, Mykolayiv

Geographic Overview

The +380 5152 prefix is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Domanivka district within the Mykolayiv Oblast of Ukraine. This area code serves the administrative center of Domanivka (Доманівка) and the surrounding rural settlements. Geographically, the region is located in the southern part of Ukraine, within the Southern Bug River basin, and is known for its agricultural production and historical significance.

Dialing Formats

For callers within Ukraine, the local dialing format requires the trunk prefix '0' followed by the area code and the subscriber number. For example, to call a landline in Domanivka from another Ukrainian city, you would dial: 0 5152 XXXXX (where XXXXX is the 5-digit local subscriber number). The total number of digits after the trunk prefix is 9, consistent with the national numbering plan.

For international callers, the format is: +380 5152 XXXXX. The plus sign represents the international access prefix, followed by Ukraine's country code (380), the area code (5152) without the leading '0', and the local subscriber number. For instance, a caller from the United States would dial: 011 380 5152 XXXXX, while a caller from the United Kingdom would dial: 00 380 5152 XXXXX.

Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction

The Domanivka district is part of the Mykolayiv Oblast, which is subdivided into raions (districts). The prefix 5152 covers the Domanivka Raion, which includes the urban-type settlement of Domanivka and numerous villages. The area is primarily rural, with the local economy based on agriculture, food processing, and small-scale manufacturing. The nearest major city is Mykolayiv, which is approximately 120 kilometers to the south.

Caller Instructions

Local callers (within Ukraine): When dialing from a different area code, you must include the trunk prefix '0' before the area code. For example, to call a number in Domanivka from Kyiv, you would dial: 0 5152 XXXXX. If you are calling from a mobile phone, the same format applies, but you may also use the international format (+380 5152 XXXXX) if your mobile operator supports it.

Foreign callers: Always use the international format: +380 5152 XXXXX. Ensure you replace the leading '0' of the area code with the country code and international access prefix. For example, from Germany, you would dial: 00 380 5152 XXXXX.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest ITU-T E.164 guidelines, there are no overlay codes for the Domanivka area. The prefix 5152 is exclusively used for fixed-line services within this geographic region. Subscriber numbers are typically 5 digits long, making the total length of a national significant number (NSN) 9 digits (excluding the trunk prefix). It is important to note that while mobile numbers in Ukraine also start with 380, they use different NDCs (e.g., 50, 66, 95, etc.) and are non-geographic. Therefore, the 5152 prefix is strictly for landlines.

Regulatory and Technical Notes

The Ukrainian numbering plan is administered by the Ukrainian State Centre of Radio Frequencies (UCRF) under the Ministry of Digital Transformation. All geographic numbers are allocated to fixed-line operators, primarily Ukrtelecom, which is the incumbent operator. In recent years, number portability has been introduced, allowing subscribers to retain their numbers when switching operators, but this does not affect the geographic nature of the prefix.
