How to read a Italy phone number
A Italy number is +39 followed by 10 digits. Knowing which of those digits mark a mobile is what tells you what the call will cost before you place it.
Italy uses no trunk prefix, so the national number is dialled exactly as written after the country code.
Mobile prefixes
Landline prefixes
Prefix ranges still identify a line as mobile or fixed even where a number has been ported between operators, because the mobile and fixed blocks are separate and numbers do not move between them. Operator identification from a prefix, by contrast, stopped being reliable once portability arrived.

What is the country code for Italy?
The country code for Italy is +39. Dial this after the exit code (or use + on a mobile).
What are the area codes for Italy?
Italy has 7 city area codes listed on this page, including Rome 06, Milan 02, Naples 081. Dial the country code first, then the area code without its trunk prefix, then the local number. The table above gives the full dial string for every city.
What does a Italy phone number look like?
A Italy number is written as +39 06 1234 5678: the country code +39 followed by 10 digits. That total is fixed by the national numbering plan, so a number with one digit missing is a typo rather than a shorter valid number.
How can I tell if a Italy number is a mobile?
By its leading digits. In Italy, a national number of 10 digits beginning with 3 is a mobile. That still works after a number has been ported between operators, because mobile and fixed-line blocks are separate ranges and numbers do not move between them.
Do I need to drop the leading 0 when calling Italy?
Italy does not use a trunk prefix, so you dial the local number exactly as-is after the country code.
