The history behind Russian phone numbers
The history of Russia phone numbers dates back to the Soviet era, when the first telephone networks were built in the country. At that time, phone numbers were assigned based on the location of the subscriber, with each city or region having its own prefix.
In 1993, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian Federation was established, and a new numbering plan was introduced. The new plan consisted of a three-digit area code followed by a seven-digit subscriber number. The first digit of the area code indicated the geographical region, and the second and third digits indicated the specific location within that region.
In 2006, the numbering plan was revised again, with the introduction of a four-digit area code and a seven-digit subscriber number. The first digit of the area code still indicated the geographical region, but the second, third, and fourth digits indicated the specific location within that region.
Technical info on Russian phone numbers
Russian phone numbers consist of 11 digits, including the country code (+7 or 8) followed by the regional code and the subscriber's number. The regional code is three digits, while the subscriber's number is seven digits. For example, a typical Moscow phone number would be written as +7 495 xxx-xx-xx, where "495" is the regional code and "xxx-xx-xx" is the subscriber's number.
In some regions, such as Moscow and St. Petersburg, there are also additional digits added to the subscriber's number to distinguish between landlines and mobile phones. When calling within Russia, it is necessary to dial the full phone number, including the regional code, even if calling within the same region.
