How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Albania

Albania’s country calling code is +355. From abroad, dial your exit code → 355 → the area code or mobile prefix (omit any leading 0) → the subscriber number. Inside Albania, use the trunk prefix 0 for long-distance calls (e.g., 04 for Tirana). International calls from Albania use 00. Albania’s plan is closed, so national numbers are dialed in full with the trunk 0. Inside Afghanistan, long-distance calls use the trunk prefix 0, and international calls use 00. Typical formats: Kabul landline +93 20 XXX XXXX and mobile +93 7X XXX XXXX.

Landlines: Big cities use short area codes (e.g., 4 for Tirana, 52 for Durrës). Typical international format looks like +355 {area} XXX XXXX (subscriber length varies by locality). Example: +355 4 XXX XXXX for Tirana. number ranges remain in use under the new ownership/brand.

Mobiles: Mobile numbers use 06X prefixes. The major allocations are 069 (Vodafone) and 067/068 (now under One Albania, following the 2023 merger of One Telecommunications and ALBtelecom). Due to number portability, prefixes show the original allocation, not necessarily the current operator.

What are the city and area codes in Albania

Dialing tip: From inside Albania, add the trunk 0 before the area code (e.g., 04 for Tirana). From abroad, drop the 0 and use +355 instead.

Which mobile prefixes do mobile operators use in Albania

Dialing tip: Because number portability is active, a number that starts with 067/068/069 may now be hosted by a different network than its original prefix—always dial the full number as given.
