Russia country code +7 — call Russia & get a number.

Russia spans eleven time zones on a single +7 code it shares with Kazakhstan — and swaps that +7 for a trunk "8" the moment you dial from inside. Here are the exact formats from the US, UK and Europe, Moscow's 495/499 split, the MTS-to-Tele2 prefix map, live Moscow time and weather, and how to run a +7 line through MCM.

02Die Grundlagen

What is the country code for Russia?

Russia answers to +7 — a code it doesn't keep to itself, since Kazakhstan rides the same +7. Place it after your own exit code to reach any Russian landline or mobile from abroad; on a handset the "+" supplies that exit code for you. Worth holding onto: inside Russia the same number is reached by dialling a trunk "8" where the +7 would go.

Code +7 zugewiesen wurde Russia von der ITU im Rahmen des E.164-Plans. Der “+” bedeutet „Wählen Sie Ihren lokalen internationalen Exit-Code“; Halten Sie auf einem Mobiltelefon die Taste gedrückt 0 um es zu tippen.

+7007011 700 7

Alle vier bedeuten dasselbe – sie verbinden Ihren Anruf mit Russia.

Russia phone number format explained

A Russian national number is 10 digits — a 3-digit area or mobile code plus a 7-digit subscriber number, written +7 XXX XXX XX XX. The quirk to remember is the front: abroad you lead with +7, but at home that very same number starts with the trunk 8.

Festnetz

Geographic code. Domestically 8 [area code] [7 digits]; internationally +7 [area code] [7 digits]. Moscow example: +7 495 XXX XX XX.

Mobile

Every Russian mobile opens with 9 — format +7 9XX XXX XX XX, e.g. +7 9XX XXX XX XX.

07Zeitzone

Russia time zone

No country stretches across more clocks: Russia covers 11 time zones from Kaliningrad to Kamchatka. The figure everyone schedules around is Moscow Time (MSK, UTC+3), which also runs Saint Petersburg. Russia dropped daylight saving years ago, so MSK holds steady all year — but remember a customer in Vladivostok may be seven hours ahead of the capital.

Common mistakes when calling Russia

Fast jeder fehlgeschlagene Auslandsanruf ist ein Formatierungsproblem und kein Netzwerkproblem.

Carrying the domestic trunk "8" into an international call

abroad you replace it with +7, so it's +7 495, never +7 8 495; the 8 only exists when you dial from inside Russia.

Assuming +7 means Russia for certain

Kazakhstan shares the exact same code, so the area or mobile code is what tells the two countries apart.

Treating 495 and 499 as different cities

both are Moscow; just dial whichever one the number carries.

Dropping the leading 9 on a mobile

every Russian mobile begins with 9, so +7 9XX is non-negotiable.

Reading the 9XX block as the current carrier

portability since 2013 means it may have moved networks.

10Save money

Tips to reduce the cost of calling Russia

Move calls onto VoIP/SIP rather than burning carrier international minutes.

Carry a local +7 number so Russian callers reach you at domestic rates.

Push bulk traffic across a wholesale carrier instead of a retail dialer.

Schedule around Moscow business hours to land in cheaper plan windows.

FAQ

Russia +7 — FAQ

Does +7 always mean Russia?expand_more

No — Kazakhstan shares the same +7, so you read the area or mobile code to tell which country a number belongs to.

Inside Russia, why do numbers start with 8 instead of +7?expand_more

The "8" is the domestic trunk prefix; it stands in for +7 when you dial from within Russia and is dropped for international calls.

Why does Moscow have two area codes, 495 and 499?expand_more

499 was introduced to add numbering capacity alongside the original 495; both serve the capital, so dial whichever the number uses.

How long is a Russian number after +7?expand_more

Ten digits — a 3-digit area or mobile code plus a 7-digit subscriber number.

What do mobile numbers look like?expand_more

They always open with 9, written +7 9XX XXX XX XX, across MTS, MegaFon, Beeline and Tele2.

With 11 time zones, which one should I schedule by?expand_more

Moscow Time (MSK, UTC+3) is the business reference, but check whether your contact is east of Moscow — Vladivostok runs seven hours ahead.

Does the gap to Russia change with the seasons?expand_more

No — Russia holds its clocks fixed all year, so the offset only moves when your own country switches daylight saving.

How do I dial in from the US or UK?expand_more

Dial 011 7 from the US or 00 7 from the UK, then the 10-digit number.

What currency will I be quoted?expand_more

The Russian ruble (RUB, ₽).

Can MCM give me a +7 number without a presence in Russia?expand_more

Yes — we provision genuine local 10-digit DIDs and route them to your team anywhere.
