Several routes connect you to Uzbekistan (+998) landlines, calling cards and modern VoIP services. Pick the one that fits your call volume and budget.
Dial your exit code (00 from most countries, or 011 from North America), enter +998, then the local Uzbekistan number — dropping any leading 0. Uzbekistan's 3-digit country code puts it in ITU Zone 9 of the global E.164 numbering plan.
Uzbekistan uses a 3-digit country code (Zone 9). Check that the card lists +998 rates explicitly — mobile numbers in Uzbekistan often carry a different per-minute charge than landlines. Factor in the Asia/Tashkent time zone when planning the call.
Apps like Skype, WhatsApp and Viber, and business VoIP from TKOS are the cheapest route to Uzbekistan (+998) — calls to Uzbekistan (Asia/Tashkent) travel across trans-Pacific or Indian Ocean fibre — a solid broadband or 4G connection keeps latency below 180 ms.
The cost of calling Uzbekistan varies depending on the method and service provider you choose. Compare landline, VoIP and calling-card routes side by side.
VoIP · overview
Cheapest route to Uzbekistan — internet-based.
Choose TKOS for business-grade calls to Uzbekistan, or consumer apps like Skype, WhatsApp or Viber for casual chats.
Sign up with an email or phone number, then verify your identity if required.
App-to-app calls are usually free; calls to mobile/landline numbers need a small balance or a subscription plan.
Enter +998 followed by the Uzbekistan subscriber number (drop any leading 0).
VoIP works on phones, laptops, tablets and desk phones — wherever you have internet.
If audio drops, try switching from cellular to Wi-Fi or move closer to your router.

A complete international number is built from four parts. Here's the anatomy and the dialling order.
Number anatomy
Format follows ITU-T Recommendation E.164 the international public telecommunication numbering plan.
Press + on a mobile (hold the 0 key), or dial 00 from most countries / 011 from North America.
Dial +998. This identifies Uzbekistan on the global telephone network.
Type the first part of the local number. Drop the leading 0 if there is one.
The remaining digits route the call to the specific line in Tashkent or elsewhere.

TKOS provisions +998 DIDs and termination through direct carrier interconnects.
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.
Uzbekistan (Zone 9) routes benefit from a headset with active noise cancellation — local background noise at the Tashkent end is less disruptive when your mic is already clean.
Trans-Pacific and Indian Ocean routes to Uzbekistan run 120–180ms round-trip — wired ethernet keeps packet loss below 0.1% where Wi-Fi adds jitter spikes on these longer paths.
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.
Built on top of every Uzbekistan (+998) route quality, price, and people you can reach.
TKOS routes Uzbekistan calls via direct Asia interconnects to Tashkent. Minimising the multi-hop paths that add jitter on Zone 9 destinations.
TKOS buys Uzbekistan termination in bulk across Asia carriers — the savings go straight into your per-minute rate. Transparent per-minute rates for Uzbekistan (+998), no hidden fees.
Your account manager covers Asia/Tashkent hours for Uzbekistan. Phone, email, and live chat — always online for Tashkent routes, day or night.

Uzbekistan +998
When selecting an international calling service for Uzbekistan, four factors separate the durable providers from the noise. Look for a proven track record on each.
Uzbekistan has multiple numbering zones — confirm coverage for Tashkent and every city you'll call.
Zone 9 routes congest at peak Tashkent hours — require redundant interconnects and committed burst capacity.
Confirm coverage for Asia/Tashkent hours — a Tashkent route issue at 09:00 needs a human response, not a next-day ticket.
Zone 9 rates vary per city — request a full rate deck covering Tashkent and your key Uzbekistan regions.
