506 country code. International country codes. Russia phone code
Probably, it's not a secret for anyone that the spelling of the phone number within the country and in the international format is different. For example, in Russia, to call a mobile phone, we often dial a number in the format 89ххххххххх, but to call Russia from another country, you need to dial the same number, but in the international format. Most of us know that the international code for Russia is +7, and to get a number in the international format, you just need to replace the 8 at the beginning of the number with +7.
But what if you don't know how to convert the number to the international format? Below I will share a simple algorithm for converting a phone number to an international format. So, let's analyze this using the example of the Belarusian phone number.
- Local phone number 8044771xxxx
- In the table below we find Belarus. Code of the country +375 , number length 12 numbers.
- Country code length 3 numbers. We subtract this value from the total length of the number. Happened 9 significant digits in the phone number.
- Now we take these 9 digits counting from the end of the number. It turns out 44771xxxx
- All that remains is to add the country code to the beginning of the number: + 37544771xxxx
Done! The phone number is now in international format.

Each of us at least once in our life had (or still will have to) call abroad, and that means the question arose " what country code ...? ". No wonder, because this information is very relevant today. The development of mobile communications and related technologies is progressing at a rapid pace, a large number of various services become available, tariffs are reduced (in particular, for international calls). Mobile operators are actively continuing conclude agreements for the provision of roaming services, which translates into an increase in the number of countries to which you can call from a mobile.In this case, you will have to use the international dialing format, which includes such components as country code, area code (or mobile operator ) and, in fact, the phone number itself.
In this regard, first of all, the question may arise about the correct set of the required country code. The table above will help you find the answer to this question. I think it will not be difficult for you to figure out what and how to watch. The first column is the name of the country. The second column is the international code of this country. Well, the third column is an example of dialing a number in international format. I draw your attention to the fact that when dialing through + [country code] [city (operator) code] [phone number] the total number of digits you have must be 12, dialing begins with the "+" symbol. Now different operators use their own dialing formats for different services, so in this case there will be differences (for example, Kyivstar has a StarSvit service, for which dialing should always start with 015 instead of the “+” symbol).
International dialing codes are approved once, for the same country they are unlikely to change over time (unless, of course, such a country breaks down into others, etc.). Country codes are 1-4 digits long. Filters are located above the table to simplify the search for the required country code. In the field "Enter the country" you can start entering the name of the country, the telephone code of which you need to find out. Auto-completion will present you with available options. Choose a suitable country, then press the "Apply" button and you will see the code you are looking for.
Similarly, you can filter by country code. Start entering the country code (and if you were called from a number that presumably belongs to someone from another country, then start entering it (number) from the first digit without the "+" symbol) and you will see the available options from the autocomplete list. In short, use it. I hope this information will be useful for you and you can easily find out what country code you must dial before the phone number of the subscriber you are calling.
In Russia, different telephone codes are used for international and local calls. So international dialing code of Russia +7 (it is used for calls between countries). The "+" sign means that the next international country code will be indicated. And the telephone code of Russia - 8 - is used for calls within the country.
Russia code - origin
There are two explanations why the Russian code is +7. This is popular opinion (popular mainly in Russia) and a scientific explanation.
Here one cannot but rejoice that russia code +7. This means that we are among the ten most influential countries. But what else, if they have been afraid of us since the times of the USSR.
2. The whole world is divided into 10 zones by geographic location, which are numbered from 0 to 9. Countries within the zone have international codes starting with the zone digit. Russia is part of Zone 7 (it shares it with Kazakhstan almost in half). By what principle the zones themselves were numbered remains unclear.
Interestingly, you will not find zone 0 anywhere, because according to the standard it was allocated for space objects (Moon, Mars, etc.)
Russia phone code
Any state has its own unique telephone code, which simplifies the system of telephone calls between countries. If the system of assigning each country its own code was not introduced (meaning not only the telephone code of Russia), then either you would have to call on very long phones or there would be complete chaos with phone numbers. A thick telephone directory would be indispensable. And identifying where the call is from and handling the incoming call would be even more difficult. Even if they called you from a neighboring city, russia phone code stationary, one would have to refer to the reference book. But how actually in reality:
Russia international code +7 , although within the country from a mobile phone you can dial 8 , but from a landline phone in Russia only 8 , and from a landline phone from abroad only 007 .
So the desire of a person to try to organize everything in this case is justified. True, it was not possible to agree that everything would be unambiguous, as always. There are always several points of view. Or maybe this is good? I am glad that country code Russia - that's for sure 7 .
