How do you call Georgia from Russia?
Country code, city codes and dialling a mobile number.
Short answer
To call Georgia from Russia, dial +995, then the city or mobile code and the subscriber's number. For a mobile it looks like +995 5XX XX XX XX, and for Tbilisi +995 32 2XX XX XX. From a Russian landline, dial 8, wait for the tone, then 10 instead of the plus.
Why
- Georgia's international code is +995.
- All Georgian mobile numbers start with 5 and have 9 digits after the country code.
- Tbilisi's code is 32; other cities have their own two- or three-digit codes.
Details
The cost depends on your Russian operator and plan, and international minutes are usually expensive. Messenger calls are cheaper: WhatsApp, Telegram and Viber all work in Georgia.
Tip
Save Georgian numbers in the +995 format straight away so calls and messaging apps work without errors.
What may differ
The cost depends on your Russian operator's tariff, and calling via messaging apps is usually cheaper.
