KIEV, Oct. 12 – Ukraine on the night of Oct. 13/14 is to switch to a new telephone dialing system.

Starting from Oct. 14, to call to another city within Ukraine one will need to dial 0 instead of 8.

The codes for making international telephone calls from Ukraine have also changed. Users should now dial 00 before the country code instead of dialing 10.

Under the new system, users should just dial the area code followed by the number. For example, to call Kiev from regions one would need to dial 0-44 and then the number, to make international call to Moscow one would need to dial 0 - 7- 495 and then the number.
