Ukraine at a glance
The numbers and facts you need before you dial.
What is the country code for Ukraine?
+380 is the number that connects Ukraine to its diaspora and the wider world. Reach for it right after your own exit code on any call into a Ukrainian landline or mobile from abroad. On home soil nobody dials +380 — Ukrainians press the trunk 0 ahead of a city code or mobile prefix. Calling in from another country, that single 0 falls away.
Code +380 was assigned to Ukraine by the ITU under the E.164 plan. The “+” means “dial your local international exit code”; on a mobile, press and hold 0 to type it.
All four mean the same thing — they connect your call to Ukraine.
How to call Ukraine from anywhere
Reaching a Ukrainian number from anywhere follows one rhythm: exit code, then 380, then the city or mobile prefix with its leading 0 removed, then the line itself. Kyiv answers to 44 (locals dial it as 044).
Full example: +380 44 XXX XXXX — drop the local leading 0 when calling from abroad.
Ukraine phone number format explained
Strip the trunk 0 and a Ukrainian number is nine digits: a two-digit city or operator code carrying a seven-digit subscriber line behind it.
Landline
Pattern `0 [area code] [local number]`. Kyiv reads as 044; other cities keep their own two-digit codes (Kharkiv 057, Odesa 048). At home: 044 123 4567. From abroad: +380 44 123 4567.
Mobile
Pattern `0 [2-digit prefix] [7-digit number]` — think 067, 050, 063. At home: 067 123 4567. From abroad: +380 67 123 4567, the 0 left behind.

Ukraine mobile network prefixes
The prefix after +380 tells you which network issued the SIM — though number portability means it no longer guarantees the operator.
Kyivstar
largest operator; prefixes **067, 068, 096, 097, 098**.
Vodafone Ukraine
major operator; prefixes **050, 066, 095, 099** (and 075).
lifecell
major operator; prefixes **063, 073, 093**.
Ukraine time zone
Ukraine uses Eastern European Time (EET, UTC+2) in winter and Eastern European Summer Time (EEST, UTC+3) from late March to late October.
** Family and colleagues on the US East Coast are easiest to reach in Kyiv's early-to-mid afternoon, which lands on their morning. London and most of the EU share nearly the whole Ukrainian working day. Ukraine's clock-changes move in step with the EU, so the gaps stay predictable.
Emergency numbers in Ukraine
Free to call from any Ukraine phone, landline or mobile.
Common mistakes when calling Ukraine
Almost every failed international call is a formatting issue, not a network issue.
**Reaching for the old Soviet "8" trunk:** Ukraine retired the legacy 8 / 8~10 system back in 2009 for a clean "0" trunk and "00" international access
anyone still dialing the old way is using a plan that no longer exists.
**Holding onto the leading 0:** From outside Ukraine, let it go
it's +380 **44**…, never +380 **044**…
**Mixing up +380 and +7:** Ukraine is unambiguously **380**; +7 belongs to Russia, and some Russian-occupied areas were reassigned +7 by the occupying side
for Ukraine, always 380.
**Reading the carrier off the prefix:** Portability means a 067 or 050 number could ride any of the three networks
**Reading the carrier off the prefix:** Portability means a 067 or 050 number could ride any of the three networks.
**Dialing 911:** That's a North American habit
in Ukraine it's **112**, plus 101/102/103.
Tips to reduce the cost of calling Ukraine
Route over IP, not roaming
MCM carries Ukraine calls across the internet for a fraction of IDD or roaming rates, a real difference when you call home often.
Favour landlines for the long ones
fixed-line termination usually undercuts mobile.
Work the EET/EEST window
line up calls inside the shared business hours so you're not paying for missed-call callbacks.
**Hold a local Ukraine DID** so people in Kyiv or Lviv reach you at a home-country rate.

Ukraine +380 — FAQ
What's the cheapest way to phone Ukraine from abroad?expand_more
A VoIP virtual number routed over IP — it sidesteps roaming and IDD charges, which matters when you call home regularly. MCM provisions exactly this.
I keep getting "number not in service" calling a Kyiv landline — why?expand_more
Most often it's the leading 0 left in. From outside Ukraine, dial +380 44 …, not +380 044 …
Is +380 the same as Russia's code?expand_more
No. Ukraine is +380 and Russia is +7 — entirely separate. Some Russian-occupied areas were reassigned +7 by the occupying side, but Ukraine's plan is always 380.
Why won't the old "8" prefix connect anymore?expand_more
Ukraine retired the Soviet-era 8 / 8~10 system in 2009 for a "0" trunk and "00" international access. Anything using 8 is calling against a plan that's gone.
Which networks run Ukrainian mobiles?expand_more
Kyivstar, Vodafone Ukraine and lifecell — three operators sharing prefixes such as 067, 050 and 063.
Can I tell which carrier a number is on?expand_more
No — number portability moves lines freely between the three, so the prefix only shows the original assignment.
Does Ukraine change its clocks?expand_more
Yes — EET (UTC+2) in winter and EEST (UTC+3) in summer, switching in step with the EU.
Can my business hold a Ukraine number while based elsewhere?expand_more
Yes — MCM gives you a genuine +380 DID you can route to any team, anywhere.
