Italy
Country Code & Virtual Numbers
Italy's +39 code is one of the few in the world where the leading 0 is kept even when dialing internationally — a quirk that trips up many first-time callers. Capital: Rome · Business hours: 3:00 AM–11:00 AM EST.
What is the +39 country code?
Italy's international dialing code is assigned by the ITU (International Telecommunication Union) and used for every call placed from outside the country.
Network & carriers
Italy's telecom market is regulated by AGCOM, with TIM, Vodafone, WindTre, and Iliad as the major network operators.
Numbering format
Unlike most countries, Italian landline numbers keep their leading 0 even when dialed internationally — a Rome number stays 06 even as +39 06.
Calling culture
Italian business culture places weight on personal relationships and face time — an initial call is often just the start of a longer relationship-building process.
Italy is one of very few countries worldwide where the domestic leading zero is retained in the full international number, rather than dropped.
A quick read on Italy numbers.
Italian numbers keep their leading 0 even in international format — a rule that differs from almost every other country's numbering system. Rozper stores and dials contacts in full E.164 format automatically, so you never have to think about the formatting.
