Find out the region by cell phone number. We determine the mobile operator by phone number

The three main mobile communication companies in the Russian Federation are MTS, Megafon and Beeline. Other mobile operators in Russia are not so popular, and even such giants as TELE2, Rostelecom and Iota fall short of the leaders. The coverage of large mobile communication companies covers the entire territory of the Russian Federation. To identify subscribers, telephone numbers are used, and to determine the provider, prefixes of mobile operators are used. One company, especially if it is large, may own several indices. For example, the list for MTS covers a wide range of numbers.

What is a cell phone number

A ten-digit identifier, consisting of a provider code and a unique set of numbers, is the number mobile phone. In the international format, there is also a country index (for Russia +7). Def codes (operator identifiers) consist of three digits; numbering starts at nine. These are non-geographic telephone indexes, thanks to which it is possible to determine the subscriber's communication service provider, but firms no longer have a monopoly on them. You can switch, for example, from MTS to Megafon while maintaining the same set of numbers.

The transfer service is still available to a small number of people, and it is still possible to find out where the unknown is calling from. For the same reason, number codes mobile operators Russia remains in demand data. Def are not considered secret information and are in open databases. They encode not only information about the provider, but also about the region in which the number is registered (within the range of regions, and not a specific city or district).

Cellular operator codes

The Federal Communications Agency (Rossvyaz) distributes the codes of mobile operators in Russia. A table with a list of def identifiers is posted on the official website of the institution and is regularly updated. It is available for download to any Internet user. For the convenience of the search, you can drive the code into a special form on the site and quickly find information about the corresponding network provider and region.

A summary table of all occupied digits (distribution of cell phone numbers Russian operators by regions below):

90: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9;

Mobile communication is an integral part of life - in 70% of cases, people make calls using not a stationary, but a cellular device. That is why it is important to know how to identify the operator by phone number so that the use of the device or tariff becomes as comfortable as possible for the subscriber.

In some cases, it is required to identify the operator by the mobile phone number from which the call came. This is important because:

a person will be able to get information about the operator and compare it with their own “base” of acquaintances, friends and business contacts;
you can understand how profitable calls to this phone number are (some tariff plans allow you to significantly save money in the "native network");
the subscriber will be able not to spend his own funds (some numbers may be paid for incoming calls).

In order to be completely sure that the call is made from the number of "your" operator, you need to visit the official website (Beeline, Megafon, Iota, MTS, Tele 2) - all information that is relevant for a given period of time is there. You can also get answers by calling the operator.

In order to be completely safe from possible error, you also need to know that each mobile operator has its own codes. Belonging to a particular operator is determined by a combination of three digits that come after 8 (or the country code in which the subscriber is registered, for Russia it is +7).

This approach is not a 100% guarantee of an accurate operator identification, as many users prefer to keep their phone number when switching to another operator.

It is also very important, when checking the number, to use official services so that the number does not get into the database of scammers. Safe functionality is only on official sites - this should not be forgotten either.

Consider the main codes related to the main operators providing mobile communications and Internet services in Russia:

MTS - 910-919 and 980-982, as well as 985, 987, 988;
Megafon - 920-937;
Beeline - 903, 905, 906, 909, as well as 960-968, 976;
TELE2 - 902, 904, 905, 950-953, 916.

It is recommended to additionally clarify whether the number belongs to a specific operator; online services are used for this purpose.

Example: a call may come from a Beeline subscriber, but the first digits after 8 may be 926. Such nuances can only be found on official services.

Beeline codes by region

The country is large, there are many cities and regions in it, so it is important to know additionally the codes that belong to them. This is necessary in order to take advantage of special offers and opportunities included in local rates.

Beeline has the following codes:

903, 963 and 909, 964-968 - all regions;
905 and 906 - all regions (exception: Far East);
951 and 953 - Primorye;
960 - all regions (exception: the Far East and the Urals).

Beeline also serves customers with codes 961-962 - for all regions except the North-West.

MTS customers use the following codes:

910, 915 - central regions;
911, 981 - Northwest region;
912, 982 - Ural;

914, 984 - Far East;
916, 985 - the city of Moscow and Moscow Region;
917 - Moscow, Moscow Region and the Volga region;
987 - Volga region;
918, 988 - South, North Caucasus.

There are also codes covering several regions at once: 919 - the Volga region, the Urals, the Center, the South and the North Caucasus; 989 - the code is valid for all regions.

Megafon codes by region

You can approximately find out the operator by the cell phone number, given the codes relevant for Megafon:

920 - Center, Volga region;
921 - Northwest;
922 - Ural;
923 - Siberian district;
924 - Far East;
925-926 - Moscow and Moscow Region;
927 - Volga region (exception: Nizhny Novgorod region);
928 - North Caucasus and the South of the country.

Code 929 is valid in all regions of the country.

Tele2 codes by regions

Recently, Tele 2 was included among the main operators. The following codes are characteristic of this operator:

900-902, 908, 953, 958 - for all regions;
904 - North, Lipetsk, Rostov, Kursk regions;
950 - 952 - a number of regions (you can check on the official website);
977 - the capital and MO;
991 - St. Petersburg, Leningrad region, Novgorod region;

993 - Tambov, Orel, Magadan regions, Khakassia, Tyva;
994 - Magadan, Amur, Sakhalin regions, Kamchatka;
995 - Adygea, Kalmykia and Krasnodar Territory;

Code 999 is distributed in Moscow, Moscow Region, Yaroslavl and Kostroma regions.

Not only knowledge of the codes, but also special Internet resources will help determine the region. The information received will be useful for those who do not want to take risks and lose funds from their account by making calls to dubious numbers.

Several programs have also been developed that allow you to search phone number in the base of the main telecom operators, - DEF or Pnone Wizard. It is impossible to say for sure how safe they are, so it is best to visit the official websites of operators or call their phones (short numbers).

Conclusion

Before answering a call, many users want to know the operator by phone number. If this cannot be done immediately (the person does not know the codes or doubts), it is better not to answer.

An unknown number may belong to scammers, so it is important to follow safety precautions. Verification is carried out by entering the number into the program or online service. You can also get help by calling the operator directly. All these actions are completely free and make it easy to identify the operator by phone number.

The article describes how to find out which region is assigned a particular mobile number code.

Navigation

Among the Russian mobile communications, such operators as Beeline, Megafon and MTS stand out clearly (Tele2 is also a popular company). The main number of subscribers belongs to these companies. Other operators operate in certain cities and regions of Russia, with a much smaller number of customers.

Each operator has its own numbers tied to certain regions of the Russian Federation. To find out which region the number belongs to, you need to go to the Internet and enter in one of the search resources (for example, "Yandex") "identify the region by mobile number." Next, we will explain what distinguishing features a mobile phone number has.

In the Russian Federation, mobile operator codes are patented with three-digit numbers that begin with " 9 ". Before the three-digit number is the international dialing code of Russia - " +7 " (or " 8 "). After the three-digit number comes the seven-digit number of each individual subscriber.

Room type – « +7(8) 9xx xxx xx xx».

Each operator is assigned its own personal three-digit codes (" 91x"- "MTS"; " 92x"- "Megafon"; " 96x"- "Beeline"). In addition, each operator has a different range of numbers for each region - for example, the three-digit code " 905 ” along with seven-digit numbers from “ 2500000 " before " 2899999 ” tells us that such mobile numbers are assigned to Beeline for the city of St. Petersburg. The same code 905 » with a range from « 1830000 " before " 1849999 "- "Beeline" for the Ulyanovsk region.

Video: Determine the operator by mobile and region

Users very often see unknown numbers on the screens of their smartphones, calling, as it turns out after the answer, from another region of our country or even from a neighboring state. But sometimes incoming calls are ignored, and after a few minutes the question arises before the person whether it is worth calling back to the subscriber who called him: it should be noted that, first of all, in such situations, a person is stopped by domestic or even international roaming. Knowing how to determine the region by mobile phone number, the user will be able to make sure that high expenses in the form of payment for an outgoing call are impossible.

Operator codes

Below are the codes assigned to federal mobile operators:

Operator	Code
MTS	902, 904, 908, 910, 911, 912, 913, 914, 915, 916, 917, 918, 919, 950, 978, 980, 981, 982, 983, 984, 985, 986, 987, 988, 989.
Beeline	900, 902, 903, 904, 905, 906, 908, 909, 950, 951, 953, 960, 961, 962, 963, 964, 965, 966, 967, 968, 969, 980, 983, 986
Megaphone	902, 904, 908, 920, 921, 922, 923, 924, 925, 926, 927, 928, 929, 930, 931, 932, 933, 934, 936, 937, 938, 939, 950, 999
Iota	958, 999
Tele 2	900-902, 904, 908, 950-953, 958, 977, 992, 994, 996, 999

It is worth saying that these combinations of numbers cannot give the user any accurate information related to the geolocation of another subscriber: for example, the def code (996) is intended for about 40 regions of our country where Yota services are provided.

Also, some of the presented series are divided between the Big Three operators and regional communication providers, that is, for example, the owner of the +7 (900) XXX-XX-XX number can be a subscriber of both Tele2 and Yekaterinburg Motiv.

To identify an incoming call, you should pay attention not to the first 3 digits, but to the first 5 (sometimes even 7) - in this case, the search region will narrow significantly, and the user will be able to find at least approximate information about the location of the caller.

Of course, it is unlikely that anyone will enjoy manually scrolling a long list of five-digit numbers, so to quickly and accurately determine the location by mobile number, you should use special online services (RegionOperator or IndexMain.ru).

Russian region codes

It is even more difficult to identify the city in which the subscriber calling the user is located by the cell phone number: the number of cities and other settlements in our country will never allow us to adhere to any strict ranking rules when distributing our numbers.

The same can be said about fixed phones: for example, the code (416) is common for the cities of the Amur and Arkhangelsk regions.

Megafon codes in regions

Beeline codes by region

MTS codes

World country codes

The following table contains phone codes belonging to operators from some countries of the world:

It is worth noting that some countries have more than two hundred def-codes for their mobile operators, which is due either to a large population or a high level of economic development in the region. Although it will be difficult to identify whether the number belongs to the territory of one or another large state, there will definitely not be any problems, for example, with the 290 'series, which is wholly owned by Belarusian operators.

Each country also has its own universal access code:

UK -44
Denmark - 45
Italy - 39
Macedonia - 389
Norway - 47
Russia - 7

Any mobile number begins with such combinations, and each country of the world has a specific sequence of numbers: thus, in order to call, for example, the UK, the user will have to dial 44 before the def-code and the “root” of the number.
