A federal number differs from a local one in that you can call it not only from your city or region, but also from all over the world. It includes the country code, operator, as well as the phone number itself. The federal number is convenient for those who often use long distance or international telephone communication.
Instructions
Step 1
The full number in the federal format includes the country code (usually 1 digit, in the case of Russia it is +7), the city or mobile operator code (3 or 4 digits), and the subscriber's phone number (6-7 digits). If you have a cell phone, then it is most likely that you know it in the federal format, since most of the numbers are provided to subscribers in this way.
Step 2
It is very easy to find the federal home phone number. Find out your area code and add it to your own telephone home number recorded in federal format.
Step 3
If you have a direct cellular, that is, one that has the same number of digits as landline numbers, it can also be presented in a federal format. You need to add the area and country code in the same way as if it were a simple city number.
Step 4
You can also contact your telephone company support to find out the “long” version of your number. It depends on the cellular operator whether to use a simple prefix to add the number to the federal one, or you will have to remember a completely different number. For example, a prefix works for direct MTS numbers, but for Tele2, the short version of a direct number is often completely different from the federal one. The fact is that calling a direct cellular number over a long-distance connection, if you use the city code as an addition to the federal city code, works great, but problems with SMS delivery can arise - they come only to the long version of the number provided by the operator.
