Phone numbers in Italy
What a phone number in Italy carries: its country calling code, an example number for every line type the numbering plan has, the regulator table this server syncs for it and what the weekly coverage measurement found there, and the area-code pages beneath it. Read from the numbering metadata and the regulator’s own table, never from a number anyone typed.
The numbering plan for Italy
Every phone lookup starts from the numbering metadata: it settles whether a number is valid for Italy, how it is written nationally and internationally, and which line type its range belongs to. The example numbers below are the plan’s own examples per line type, not real subscribers.
| calling_code | +39 |
|---|---|
| shared with | 1 other region |
| example, mobile | +39 312 345 6789 |
| example, fixed line | +39 02 1234 5678 |
| example, toll free | +39 800 123 456 |
| example, premium rate | +39 899 123 456 |
| example, VoIP | +39 55 1234 5678 |
| example, shared cost | +39 848 123 456 |
| regulator table | none — libphonenumber only |
| area-code pages | 0 |
| disposable list | 126,670 listed numbers worldwide, synced 2026-09-07 |
| fictional ranges | none reserved under this calling code |
| continent | EU |
| currency | EUR |
| timezone | Europe/Rome |
+39 is shared with Vatican City, so the region of a number is settled by its area code, not by the calling code alone.
The regulator table behind a lookup here
No regulator publishes a machine-readable block table for Italy that this server syncs, so a lookup here answers from the numbering metadata alone: the format, the line type and the region of a number, with carrier null and block_status null. That is not a gap in the number; it is the limit of what is published.
What a lookup answers for a number here
Every number the plan accepts for Italy comes back with its formats, its line_type and line_type_source, its region and timezones, and the is_fictional and is_disposable flags from the bundled fiction ranges and the synced list of SMS-receiving numbers. With no regulator table here, carrier and block_status answer null rather than a guess.
Europe/Rome: the whole country keeps one clock, so a lookup answers that zone for every number here.
