FAQ

Questions about calling Turkmenistan, answered.

Everything a business or traveller needs to know before dialling Turkmenistan (+993). Can't find an answer? Our team is one click away.

Q1.What is the country code for Turkmenistan?
Turkmenistan's international calling code is +993. Dial it immediately after your exit prefix and before the local subscriber number whenever calling from outside Turkmenistan.
Q2.What is the best time to call Turkmenistan?
Tuesday–Wednesday, 9:00–11:00 AM TMT (UTC+5) is the window. Turkmenistan runs on Turkmenistan Time year-round — fixed at UTC+5 with no daylight saving. Ashgabat business opens at 9 AM. Avoid Nowruz (March 21–24), Independence Day (October 27), and Neutrality Day (December 12). Note: Turkmenistan has very restricted internet access, so email communication may be unreliable.
Q3.How do I call a mobile number in Turkmenistan?
Turkmen mobiles start with 06x (8 digits). Drop the leading 0 — dial +993 then 6x plus the remaining 6 digits. A typical Turkmen mobile: +993 65 123456.
Q4.What time zone does Turkmenistan use?
Turkmenistan uses the Asia/Ashgabat time zone. Factor in the Ashgabat local time before placing calls — the best window for business calls is typically 09:00–17:00 Asia/Ashgabat.
Q5.What is the best time to call someone in Turkmenistan?
Standard business hours in Turkmenistan are 09:00–17:00 Asia/Ashgabat. Calling within that window means your contact is at their desk in Ashgabat — outside those hours you are likely to reach voicemail.
