Russia Country Code

Russia’s phone code is the telephone country code that is used for phone communications when a call is placed from outside of the country.

Russia’s Country Code is +7

Russia’s country code is +7. The country code is necessary only when dialing a phone number to make a telephone call from another country. International callers who wish to dial a telephone number in Russia should dial Russia’s telephone country code (+7) before the national telephone number preceded by area code.

All national phone numbers in Russia are ten digits long – aaa bbb bb bb, with aaa being the area code followed by the 7 digit local phone number. Always delete the digit “8” when calling from overseas. Follow these easy steps to dial a phone number in Russia using the country code:

Step 1. Enter your country’s exit code on your phone. If you are calling from Europe please enter the 00 (or “+” sign if calling from a mobile device) or 011 if calling from the United States. American callers use the “011” exit code for all international call, including Russia.

Step 2. Dial 7, Russia’s country code.

Step 3. Then enter Russia’s area code. Don’t use the prefix “8” when calling from outside of the country.

Step 4. Right after the area code, dial the national phone number you wish to call in Russia.

Here is an example: 

When calling from Europe: 00 7 aaa bbb bb bb (or +7 aaa bbb bb bb from a mobile device)
When calling from the United States: 011 7 aaa bbb bb bb

Russia’s area codes are three to five digit long codes that are used for long-distance calling inside the country. Please do not enter the digit “8” when calling overseas. Here are some Russia’s area codes:

If you wish to dial a phone number with these area codes from outside Russia, you would have to dial first the exit code, then Russia’s country code 7. 

For example, if you want to dial a phone number in Ekaterinburg, this would be an example of a phone number: +7 343 bbb bb bb or 007 343 bbb bb bb, and 011 343 bbb bb bb if calling from the United States.

Russia’s mobile phone numbers are operated by the four largest local mobile phone companies – Beeline, MegaFon, Mobile TeleSystems and Tele2.

The mobile phone numbers in Russia start with “9“. When dialing a mobile phone number from outside of the country, first you need to dial the exit code (for example, “011” or “+” sign if calling from the United States), then Russia’s country code “7”, plus the 10 digit phone number including the mobile code “9“.

For example, enter 011 7a bbb bbbb or +7 9aa bbb bbbb if calling from the United States.

If you plan to travel to Russia it is important to be prepared when it comes to your health and safety. We recommend to save the phone numbers below in case you’ll need it.
