Use Exit Code 00 (Not the Old 8~10)
Since October 2014, Uzbekistan's international call prefix is 00. The older prefix 8~10 is no longer valid. On mobile phones, the + symbol works as a universal substitute for 00.
Quick Answer
To call Kazakhstan from Uzbekistan, dial 00 + 7 + the 10-digit Kazakhstan number. On a mobile phone, simply use +7 followed by the number. Sayfone connects you at $0.66/min with transparent per-minute billing.

DIALING GUIDE
Follow these steps to reach any Kazakhstan landline or mobile number from Uzbekistan. The process is the same whether you're calling from Tashkent, Samarkand, or anywhere in Uzbekistan.
From a landline, dial 00. From a mobile phone, you can dial 00 or simply press and hold 0 to get the + symbol. The exit code 00 replaced the older 8~10 prefix as of October 2014.
00 or +
Immediately after the exit code, dial 7. Kazakhstan shares country code +7 with Russia, but Kazakhstan numbers are distinguished by their area and mobile prefixes (6xx and 7xx ranges).
00 7 or +7
Enter the full 10-digit Kazakhstan phone number. For landlines, this includes a 3- or 4-digit area code followed by the subscriber number. For mobile numbers, the 10 digits typically start with 70x or 77x.

IMPORTANT DETAILS
Key rules and nuances to know when calling Kazakhstan from Uzbekistan, including differences between mobile and landline formats and how to distinguish Kazakhstan numbers from Russian ones.
Since October 2014, Uzbekistan's international call prefix is 00. The older prefix 8~10 is no longer valid. On mobile phones, the + symbol works as a universal substitute for 00.
Both Kazakhstan and Russia use country code +7. Kazakhstan numbers are identified by zone codes in the 6xx and 7xx ranges (e.g., 700, 701, 707, 727, 7172). Russian numbers use different zone codes. If you dial +7 followed by a Kazakhstan zone code, your call routes to Kazakhstan automatically.
Inside Kazakhstan, people often dial numbers starting with 8 (the domestic trunk prefix). When calling internationally, omit this leading 8. Dial only the 10-digit number after the country code +7.
Mobile numbers in Kazakhstan are 10 digits and typically begin with 700, 701, 702, 705, 707, 708, 747, 771, 775, 776, 777, or 778. If the number you're calling starts with one of these prefixes after +7, it's a mobile number.
Kazakhstan landline area codes are 3 or 4 digits (e.g., 727 for Almaty, 7172 for Astana, 7252 for Shymkent). The area code is part of the 10-digit number. Always include it when dialing internationally โ there is no separate step to 'add' the area code.
TIMING & TIPS
Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are both on UTC+5, so there is no time difference. This makes scheduling calls straightforward โ call at a time convenient for you, and it's the same time in Kazakhstan.
With no time zone gap, this is one of the easiest international calling corridors for timing. Focus on calling during hours when the person you're reaching is likely available.
Morning Calls
9:00 AM โ 12:00 PM
Same time in both countries โ ideal for business calls
Afternoon Calls
2:00 PM โ 5:00 PM
Good for reaching people after lunch
Evening Calls

TROUBLESHOOTING
If your call to Kazakhstan isn't connecting, check these common problems and solutions.
Uzbekistan switched from 8~10 to 00 as the international exit code in October 2014. If you're dialing 8~10 before the country code, your call will not connect. Use 00 or + instead.
Both countries use +7. If you dial a Russian zone code (e.g., 495 for Moscow) instead of a Kazakhstan zone code (e.g., 727 for Almaty), your call will route to Russia. Double-check that the number starts with a Kazakhstan zone code (6xx or 7xx range).
Kazakhstan residents dial 8 before long-distance numbers domestically. Do not include this 8 when calling from Uzbekistan. Dial +7 followed by the 10-digit number directly.
A valid Kazakhstan number after +7 is exactly 10 digits. If your call fails, count the digits. Landline numbers include the area code as part of these 10 digits. Mobile numbers also total 10 digits.
Some Uzbek mobile plans may restrict international dialing or charge premium rates. If your call doesn't connect, check with your carrier that international calling is enabled on your plan, or use a browser-based calling service like Sayfone.
