Tips for clear & uninterrupted calls

Whether you're reaching Uzbekistan for business or family, three habits keep every conversation crystal clear and a clean route from TKOS handles the rest.

  • 01

    HD audio for Uzbekistan calls

    Tashkent (Uzbekistan) routes benefit from active noise cancellation — local background noise at the Tashkent end is less disruptive when your mic is already clean.

  • 02

    Connection quality to Uzbekistan

    Tashkent is ~8,268 km away — latency runs 280–310ms. Use wired ethernet to eliminate Wi-Fi jitter on this long-haul path.

  • 03

    Best time to call Tashkent

    Schedule Uzbekistan calls during Tashkent business hours — 09:00–17:00 Asia/Tashkent — your contact will be at their desk in a quiet space rather than taking the call on the move.

FAQ

Questions about calling Uzbekistan, answered.

Everything a business or traveller needs to know before dialling Uzbekistan (+998). Can't find an answer? Our team is one click away.

Q1.What is the country code for Uzbekistan?
Uzbekistan's international calling code is +998. Dial it immediately after your exit prefix and before the local subscriber number whenever calling from outside Uzbekistan.
Q2.What is the best time to call Uzbekistan?
Tuesday–Wednesday, 9:00–11:00 AM UZT (UTC+5) is the window. Uzbekistan runs on Uzbekistan Time year-round — fixed at UTC+5 with no daylight saving. Tashkent business opens at 9 AM. Avoid Navruz (March 21–23 — major spring holiday), Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Independence Day (September 1), and Constitution Day (December 8).
Q3.How do I call a mobile number in Uzbekistan?
Uzbek mobiles start with 09x (9 digits). Drop the leading 0 — dial +998 then 9x plus the remaining 7 digits. A typical Uzbek mobile: +998 90 123 4567.
Q4.How long does it take to connect a call to Uzbekistan?
A VoIP call to Uzbekistan (+998) typically connects within 2–4 seconds. Traditional circuit-switched landline calls may take 5–8 seconds due to international handshake delays across Asia carrier networks.
Q5.What is Uzbekistan's ISO country code?
Uzbekistan uses ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code UZ and alpha-3 code UZB. These codes identify Uzbekistan in trade, software, and shipping — they are entirely separate from the telephone calling code +998.
