Changes in Roaming Conditions in the Russian Federation

Starting from October 6, 2025, mobile operators in the Russian Federation have introduced a mandatory 24-hour suspension of Internet and SMS services for subscribers connecting to roaming and registering in Russian operators’ networks. This restriction is due to regulatory measures implemented by the governmental authorities of the Russian Federation.

The suspension is applied automatically from the moment of registration in a Russian operator’s network and remains in effect for 24 hours, after which it is automatically removed. 
If no activity from the registered SIM card is detected within 3 days after the suspension is lifted, the restriction will be reapplied for another 24 hours.
These restrictions do not affect voice services (phone calls), which remain fully available regardless of the Internet and SMS suspension.

Please note that if you connect to another network within the 24-hour period, the countdown will restart.
We recommend manually selecting your preferred operator in your smartphone’s Settings section by disabling the automatic network selection option.
