Restrictions in Russia
Since February 10, 2026, the regulator began systematically restricting access to the service: in spring 2026, connection failure rates to its domains reached 80–95%, and audio and video calls have been down since August 2025. As of late September 2026, for most home and mobile broadband users in Russia, the service opens unstably or requires additional tools; attempts to negotiate lifting the restrictions yielded no results.

Frequently asked questions
Is Telegram working right now?
Access restricted in Russia. Since February 10, 2026, access has been systematically restricted — the service is unstable or does not open for most users. From Europe, Telegram opens fine — the service itself is working. Checked at 06:00 MSK, updated every 5 minutes.
Why is Telegram down for me, but working for others?
Most often, it depends on the network: accessibility varies by provider and region. Check Telegram from your device, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or restart the app. Check the "Who is having issues" section to see affected providers.
How can I check if Telegram opens on my device?
Tap "Check" in the "Check on your device" section. Your browser will query Telegram addresses directly and display the response status and time. The check takes up to 8 seconds and installs nothing.
Why doesn't Telegram open for everyone?
Since February 10, 2026, access has been systematically restricted — the service is unstable or does not open for most users. Restrictions apply unevenly: the service does not open at all on some providers, while on others it loads slowly or partially. That's why it might work for friends but not for you.
