Telephone numbers in Georgia (country)

Image credit is listed at the end of this article.

Telephone numbers in Georgia consist of 9 digits and follow a closed numbering plan in which the initial 2 or 3 digits indicate the service or area code (in case of geographic numbers) and the remaining 7 or 6 digits identify the subscriber.

01Numbering plan

The current dialling plan has been in force since 4 June 2011, when there was a wide-ranging reform. Specifically, area codes were updated to start with 2 or 3, mobile numbers came to begin with the digit 5, and some geographical numbers were padded with an additional digit 2 or 3 immediately after the area code to make a total of 9 digits. The current plan is as follows:

Prefix/Code Description
1XX Used for emergency/special numbers and international calls prefix. E.g., 111 - Fire Service
2XX Reserved
3X(X) Area codes of in eastern Georgia. E.g., 32 - Tbilisi, 341 - Rustavi
4X(X) Area codes in western Georgia. E.g., 431 - Kutaisi
5XX Prefixes of mobile operators. E.g., 595 - MagtiCom
6XX Reserved
7XX Non-geographical services. E.g., 790 - MagtiCom, fixed mobile operator
8XX Toll free and shared-cost numbers. E.g., 800
9XX Premium-cost numbers

Geographic numbering

Since 1 March 2011, area codes have changed and the first digit came to indicate the respective part of the country: numbers start with 3 for eastern Georgia and with 4 for western Georgia. The current area codes are as follows:

Mobile telephony numbering

Georgian mobile operators receive their number allocations in blocks of 1 million numbers, hence the first three digits usually indicate the original mobile network providing the number. However, since mobile number portability was introduced in Georgia on 15 February 2011, the links are no longer certain.

Telephone prefixes originally distributed to mobile operators are listed below.

On 20 June 2011, the digit 5 was added to the prefixes for mobile operators. For example, prefix 77 was changed to 577.

Code Operator Code Operator
511 MagtiCom 577 Silknet Geocell
514 Silknet Geocell 578 Silknet S1
551 MagtiCom Bani 579 Cellfie
555 Silknet Geocell 591 MagtiCom
557 592 Cellfie

568 Cellfie 596 MagtiCom Bali
570 Silknet S1 597 Cellfie
571 Cellfie 598 MagtiCom Bali
574 599 MagtiCom

In addition, the mobile operator Aquafon operating in Abkhazia and using the Russian (+7) 9409 code can also be reached using the Georgian code (+995) 544.

Fixed wireless numbering

On 27 June 2011, prefixes for fixed wireless telephony changed: digit 7 have been added to the prefix. For example, prefix 90 have been changed to 790.

02Dialling

Calling within Georgia

Geographical numbers

0 + Destination area code [2 or 3 digits] + Subscriber's phone number [6 or 7 digits]

For example, to call a landline phone in Tbilisi:

2xx xxxx (within Tbilisi)
0 - 32 - 2xx xxxx (within Georgia)
Originating country's international code + 995 - 32 - 2xx xxxx (from abroad)

00 + 995 + 32 + 2xx xxxx (for example, from EU or Switzerland)

(there are no subscriber numbers that start with other digit than 2 as of September 24, 2025)

Mobile numbers

0 + Mobile network code (3 digits) + Subscriber's number [6 digits]

To dial a mobile number, for example a Magticom number:

595 + xxx xxx (from mobile network)
0 + 595 + xxx xxx (within Georgia, from landlines)
Originating country's international code + 995 (code for Georgia) - 595 - xxx xxx (from abroad)

00 + 995 + 595 + xxx xxx (for example, from EU or Switzerland)

Calling abroad

The dial plan is as follows: Optional carrier code, 00 - Destination country code - Subscriber number

The following carrier codes are in use for international communication:
