Get a Russia +7 number
ready in 60 seconds.
The Russia country code is +7 — shared with Kazakhstan (the only other +7 country) under the legacy Soviet numbering system. Reaches 144 million Russians + ~250 million mobile subscriptions across MTS, MegaFon, Beeline + Tele2 Russia. Spans 11 time zones — the most of any country on Earth.
What is the +7 country code?
Russia inherited the +7 country code from the Soviet Union — assigned by the ITU in 1949 to the USSR. It is one of only two 1-digit country codes still in active use (alongside +1 NANP). Here is how it works in modern Russia.
ITU zone 7 single-digit
+7 is one of only <b>two single-digit country codes</b> in active worldwide use (along with +1 NANP). It was assigned to the USSR by the ITU in 1949 — the entire ITU zone 7 was reserved for the Soviet Union. After the USSR dissolved in 1991, Russia + Kazakhstan retained +7; the other former Soviet republics moved to new codes (Ukraine +380, Belarus +375, etc).
Roskomnadzor-regulated
Russia's telecom industry is regulated by Roskomnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media) under the Ministry of Digital Development. Four major mobile carriers operate: MTS (~80M subs, MTS PJSC), MegaFon (~75M, owned by Sogaz), Beeline / VimpelCom (~50M), Tele2 Russia (~45M, owned by Rostelecom).
Mobile starts with 9
Russian area codes start with 3, 4, 8, or 9 (a 3-digit DEF code). Major cities: <b>495</b> Moscow + <b>499</b> Moscow (newer numbers). <b>812</b> St Petersburg. <b>383</b> Novosibirsk. Russian mobile numbers all start with <b>9</b> (+7 9XX XXX XXXX = 10-digit national format). Internal long-distance is dialed with the leading <b>8</b> (Russian trunk prefix, dropped when dialing from abroad).
+7 covers 11 time zones — the most of any single country code on Earth. Russia spans from Kaliningrad (UTC+2, on the Polish border) to Kamchatka (UTC+12, in the Far East). A call placed at the end of the workday in Moscow (5pm MSK = UTC+3) reaches Vladivostok (UTC+10) at 12 midnight + Kamchatka at 2am. Russia abolished Daylight Saving in 2014 — now permanently on UTC+3 in Moscow.
A quick read on how it works.
A Russian phone number in international format is written as +7 [3-digit area code] [7-digit local]. For example, +7 495 123 4567 for a Moscow landline (area code 495), +7 812 123 4567 for St Petersburg, or +7 9XX XXX XXXX for a Russian mobile (e.g. +7 916 123 4567 for MTS Moscow).
The domestic trunk prefix in Russia is 8 — Russians dial 8 [area code] [number] for any long-distance call inside Russia. This 8 is dropped when dialing internationally with +7. So a Moscow number domestically is "8 495 123 4567" but internationally becomes "+7 495 123 4567" — drop the 8, add the +7.
Where a +7 number reaches.
From the Kremlin in Moscow to Vladivostok on the Pacific, every Russian number lives behind a +7. Pick the area code that matches your customer city.
How to call Russia from any country.
Every country uses a different international exit code before the +7 Russia country code. From any mobile, the + symbol replaces the exit code automatically — so +7 495 123 4567 works worldwide. Do not include the Russian "8" trunk prefix when dialing from abroad.

Mobile numbers all start with 9 (+7 9XX). The Russian domestic trunk prefix is 8 (dialed for inter-city calls within Russia) — but you DROP the 8 when dialing internationally with +7.
Six reasons people pick a Russia number.
+7 reaches the world's largest country by area + 144 million Russian speakers (plus a large diaspora in Israel, Germany, the US + Kazakhstan). Sberbank + Gosuslugi + Yandex all verify with +7.
Gosuslugi + Sberbank verifications
Russian banks (Sberbank, VTB, Alfa-Bank, T-Bank/Tinkoff, Raiffeisen Russia, Gazprombank) + the Gosuslugi (state services) portal + RUB e-wallets (YooMoney, QIWI) all verify with +7 mobile OTPs.
One of only 2 single-digit codes
Only +1 NANP + +7 Russia are 1-digit country codes worldwide. A +7 prefix instantly signals "Russia" or "Kazakhstan" — fewer keystrokes than any other country code, easier to remember + dial.
Moscow 495 + St Petersburg 812 = power centers
A 495 area code says "Moscow — the Kremlin, Red Square, Skolkovo tech park, Moscow Stock Exchange". A 499 also covers Moscow (newer numbers). An 812 says "St Petersburg — Hermitage, Mariinsky, Gazprom HQ".
Reach 144M + the Russian-speaking world
+7 reaches 144M Russians + the ~270M Russian-speakers globally (Russia + Belarus + Kazakhstan + Ukraine + diaspora). The 6th-largest global language by native speakers.
11 time zones, MSK central anchor
Russia's 11 time zones span UTC+2 (Kaliningrad) to UTC+12 (Kamchatka). Moscow Standard Time MSK (UTC+3) is the central business anchor. No DST since 2014 — all clocks stay fixed year-round.
WhatsApp + Telegram + VK ready
Russia is one of the world's heaviest WhatsApp + Telegram markets — both are critical for B2B + customer comms. Russia's domestic social network VK (VKontakte, ~100M users) verifies with +7 mobile. Avito (largest Russian classifieds) requires +7.
